To stay at the forefront of Geohydrology is a necessity for all lecturing personnel at the IGS. The only way to achieve this is by research. Research at the IGS can be divided into two major streams, namely public- and private-sector research depending on the origin of funding. 

All research projects, big or small, are used for capacity building and many are forming part of an MSc or a PhD study. The topics for the research projects are diverse. Below is a list of topics in the last few years:

   * Water Supply
   * Surface water - Groundwater Interaction
   * Recharge Studies
   * Carbon Capturing and Storing
   * Acid Mne Drainage
   * Contamination Studies
   * Groundwater & Geochemical Modelling
   * Impact of mine water irrigation on groundwater   
   * Machine Learning
