Geospatial Engineering
专业详情
Geospatial Engineering graduates use digital models of our living space, sustainable spatial planning and clever transport concepts to play a vital part in building our future and solving the major challenges faced by our society and the world at large.
Career profile
Geomatic engineers are specialists in recording and visualising spatial structures and changes. They use all kinds of different measuring systems, data sources and methods to digitise, analyse and visualise our habitat.
Their field of activity ranges from taking measurements of the entire planet through to creating plans, maps and apps, or even applying their skills to dimensional verification in the shipbuilding and plant engineering industries.
Engineers with a specialisation in spatial development and infrastructure systems deal with the sustainable development of settlements, landscapes, transport and infrastructure – designed to meet the needs of today and tomorrow.
They work independently or as sought-after experts in engineering offices, industrial companies or IT system manufacturers, or in public administration, research, development and education.
Bachelor’s degree programme (180 credits)
The Bachelor’s degree programme teaches students the fundamen-tal principles of mathematics, the natural sciences and engineering. A project in the second semester provides insights into practical issues and scientific working. Students learn the fundamental skills they need to record, analyse and use spatial data which can be used to model and shape the world we live in. The study programme is ideal preparation for a Master’s degree in Geomatics or in Spatial Development and Infrastructure Systems.
