Descriptions
Degree program in Land Surveying provides students with required skills and knowhow to work successfully in the field of land surveying.
Studies are designed to cover different areas of land surveying. The goal is to answer to the needs of professional life.
Studies consist of; technical knowhow and general knowledge, the main themes in land surveying such as measurement and mapping techniques, spatial data, real estate management, environmental planning and real estate and cadastral systems.
Development
In the development of the curricula, the views of working life connections have been taken into account, as well as the relevant consultations of the Advisory Board of the Degree Programme in Land Surveying Technology in particular. Curricula are discussed on a regular basis in the Advisory Board.
Curricula are also developed on the basis of feedback from studies and from working life.
In addition, regular contacts are maintained with universities of applied sciences that teach the surveying industry through regular meetings and information dissemination.
