Geomatic Engineering and Planning Bachelor

Monitoring, Designing and Sustaining our Living Space

Geomatic engineers monitor the structures of our living and working space, and contribute to a better understanding of processes relevant to the earth’s environment. Their knowledge ranges from the geosciences to computer science to spatial planning.

Credits ECTS: 180
Language of instruction: German

Structure:

The first three semesters of the Bachelor’s degree programme focus on the fundamentals of mathematics and the natural and engineering sciences. The basic principles of geomatic engineering are then expanded and extended. From the fifth semester four elective modules are offered, from which students may choose two, depending on their interests. The programme is rounded off with elective courses and a Bachelor’s thesis.

- General basic courses: Mathematics, Mechanics, Computer Science, Physics, Geology, etc.

- Subject-specific fundamentals: Geodetic Metrology, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Parameter Estimation, Photogrammetry, Cartography, Land Management, Planning and Transportation, etc.

- Social science subjects: Law, Business Administration, Systems Engineering

- Electives, field courses, Bachelor’s thesis
