Dear Members of the AIT Community,

Eng. (Water Resources Engineering) and his M. Eng. (Soil and Water Engineering) from AIT.

 

Dr. Babel’s research encompasses the areas of hydrologic and water resources modeling as applied to integrated water resources management, watershed modeling and management, water resources allocation and management, water resources and socio-economic development, water supply system and management, climate change impact and adaptation, groundwater resources management and drought analysis, forecasting and management.

 

Dr. Babel’s promotion case was considered taking into account his overall academic accomplishments reflected in his CV, the Faculty Evaluation Panel (FEP) assessment and in light of the recommendation of the Promotions Committee of the School of Engineering and Technology and the evaluation letters received from seven external experts in his field.
