THE IMVUL GROUNDWATER MODELLING WORKSHOP was the third IMVUL training event which was held from the 17th - 21st January, 2011 at the Politecnico di Milano (Polimi) in Milan, Italy.

The workshop program included five days of courses. The lectures were taught by network team members from UPMC, Leeds, Weizmann and Polimi with the associated partner from Leeds (Rolf Farrell of the Environment Agency) also contributing. This modelling course complemented the more theoretical course on ‘Flow and transport in porous and fractured media’ by providing researchers with practical experience in applying theory. In this workshop, network researchers were exposed to the theory and practice of groundwater flow and transport modelling techniques ranging from those used in industry to more research-oriented modelling techniques. Emphasis was placed on the practical use of modelling techniques and software.
