Delleur received his Doctor of Engineering Science degree at Columbia University in 1955, his M.S.C.E. degree at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, in 1950, and his Civil and Mining Engineer degree at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia (National University of Colombia) in 1949. In 1955, he joined Purdue University where he currently is Professor Emeritus of Environmental and Hydraulic Engineering and was Head of the Hydraulic and Systems Engineering Area in the School of Civil Engineering. Dr. Delleur taught intermediate and advanced graduate courses in subsurface hydrology, surface hydrology, statistical hydrology, and hydraulics. He founded the graduate program in Hydrology and Hydraulics in the School of Civil Engineering at Purdue. He is author or co-author of two books on hydrologic time series analysis. He is author or co-author of more than 60 papers in refereed journals, 70 papers in conference proceedings, and 60 technical reports. These cover the areas of subsurface hydrology, hydrologic modeling, stochastic hydrology, urban hydrology, and hydraulics.
