Ranka Erić serves as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Environmental Engineering in the Protection of Land and Water Resources at the Faculty of Forestry, University of Belgrade. Her academic appointment began in May 2018 following employment as a teaching associate since July 2016. She teaches courses in Hydraulics in the protection of land and water resources, Water management in hilly and mountainous areas, and Sediment management at the basic academic level, as well as Water resources in hilly and mountainous areas at the Master's level.
Educated at the University of Belgrade's Faculty of Civil Engineering, she completed her basic academic studies in Hydrotechnics and Water-Environmental Engineering in 2015 with an average grade of 8.96, earning recognition as the best student in her generation. She continued with Master's studies in the same field in 2016 with an exceptional average grade of 9.86. Since October 2016, she has pursued doctoral studies in Hydrology at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade.
Her research interests focus on Hydrology, Water Resources Management, and Environmental Engineering, with particular expertise in flood prevention systems, hydrological modeling, and water degradation analysis. Her work addresses critical environmental challenges including flash flood prevention, torrential flow monitoring, early warning systems, and integrated floodplain management. She has contributed to developing land and water degradation models through her research in sustainable soil management.
Her scholarly output demonstrates consistent focus on practical hydrological applications, with publications spanning flood modeling techniques, urban runoff management, river flow analysis, and comparative hydrograph methods. The research shows progression from foundational hydrological modeling toward more specialized applications in flood prediction and water resource management in mountainous regions.
Through her teaching and research, Ranka Erić contributes to the Faculty of Forestry's accreditation efforts in areas including prevention of flash floods, torrential flow monitoring systems, and integrated floodplain management. Her work supports the development of sustainable approaches to water resource challenges in the region.
