The Cranfield Water masterclass series has been developed with a focus on the current challenges facing the water sector and is informed by our latest world-class research. The classes provide insight for water sector professionals and others who wish to increase their knowledge of topical issues. Delegates will improve their understanding of both how the specific topic is of significance for the water sector and the science and research which underpins candidate solutions.
Each masterclass is delivered by an academic leader in the relevant field; an expert who is closely engaged with leading edge knowledge delivery. Our 2023 programme will cover the following topics - click on the links below to find out more and book:
