Protection from hydrological extremes and the sustainable supply of hydrological services in the presence of changing climate and lifestyles as well as rocketing pop- ulation pressure in many parts of the world are the defining societal challenges for hydrology in the 21st century. A re- view of the existing literature shows that these challenges and their educational consequences for hydrology were fore- seeable and were even predicted by some. However, surveys of the current educational basis for hydrology also clearly demonstrate that hydrology education is not yet ready to pre- pare students to deal with these challenges. We present our own vision of the necessary evolution of hydrology educa- tion, which we implemented in the Modular Curriculum for Hydrologic Advancement (MOCHA). The MOCHA project is directly aimed at developing a community-driven basis for hydrology education. In this paper we combine literature re- view, community survey, discussion and assessment to pro- vide a holistic baseline for the future of hydrology education. The ultimate objective of our educational initiative is to en- able educators to train a new generation of "renaissance hy- drologists," who can master the holistic nature of our field and of the problems we encounter.
