Natural and Built Environment Courses

It's all about opportunities...

Here's proof

Associate Professor Basant Maheshwari currently leads a multi-disciplinary  research team through the Co-operative Research Centre Irrigation Futures (CRC  IF) to identify business opportunities for improving management of effluent, stormwater and ground water resources to satisfy environmental and irrigation  demands in the South Creek Catchment, Western Sydney.

The project seeks to identify business opportunities for irrigators, both urban and peri-urban, to become part of an expanding environmental service industry and in so doing support a truly sustainable and diversified irrigation business environment.

The project is expected to improve policies and institutional settings that support integrated water resource management in the Western Sydney region.
