Balsher Singh Sidhu
PhD Student, Liu Scholar, Four Year Fellowship Recipient, Slaymaker Awardee
I am a PhD student in the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability (IRES). My interests lie in environmental sciences, sustainability, and judicious utilization of global water resources. For my doctoral research, I plan to analyze the triangular relationship between current agricultural practices, groundwater depletion, and climate change.
Prior to joining UBC, I completed my MASc in Civil Engineering at University of Toronto, where I examined biological filtration for drinking water treatment.
