Importance of groundwater protection in hydrogeology and environmental protection, history of groundwater
protection and contaminant hydrogeology. Qualitative water standards, inorganic and organic compounds in
groundwater, their sources and properties, migration and behavior of contaminants in geological environment
(saturated and unsaturated zone). Mathematical and other models of groundwater flow and contaminant behavior
and transport. Main principles and methods of contaminant investigation, risk assessment
