URI Courses
Courses with content largely focused on hydro(geo)logy, water pollution and/or wetlands.
Several departments and colleges offer courses in the area of “Water”. We encourage our students to look beyond their home departments for classes offered by our many water experts at the University of Rhode Island. For a description of these courses, visit catalog or contact the instructor.
