Prasad Daggupati is an Associate Professor at the University of Guelph in the Department of Engineering. His research focuses on understanding watershed processes and agricultural management, with a specific emphasis on the anthropogenic influence on the fate and transport of sediment, nutrients, and pathogens. He investigates the dynamics of ephemeral gully erosion and identifies critical source areas that produce high pollutant loads, recommending economically friendly best management practices (BMPs). Daggupati also evaluates the impacts of climate change and variability, exploring mitigation and adaptation strategies in his work. His research includes the development of improved technologies for managing irrigation, drainage, and water stress, utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for remote sensing in watershed management. Through his teaching of graduate and undergraduate courses in hydrological modeling and soil water conservation design, he aims to bridge theoretical research with practical applications in engineering.
Department of Clinical Studies. Offers MSc by thesis (2 years) and MSc by coursework (1 year).
