Hydrology has grown as an interdisciplinary science after launching of the International Hydrological Decade (1965-74) of UNESCO. Realising the importance of systematic, basic and applied research in the areas of hydrology to solve complex field problems, the Institute is interacting closely with foreign organisations and agencies through international cooperation. These projects involve scientific collaboration with countries like Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, Japan, Russia, USA, UK etc. and funding from various organizations like the World Bank, UNESCO, IAEA etc.
