Geomatic Engineering Master

Focus on geodata

Geomatic Engineering compiles, measures and analyses structures and alterations in our living environment. The data gathered is used to create exact computer models which help us to better understand environmentally relevant processes and shape our future environs.

Planning involves the long-term and sustainable development of residential areas, landscapes, traffic systems and infrastructures, in the interests of present and future generations.

Credits ECTS: 120
Language of instruction: English/German

Structure:

Students of the four-semester Master’s degree programme can largely design their own curricula, whereby they deepen their knowledge in two of the four subject areas offered. Electives supplement this curriculum. An interdisciplinary project and a 16-week Master’s thesis project provide the opportunity to approach a subject-specific topic in an applied or research-oriented manner. After obtaining the Master’s degree, graduates may acquire the Swiss federal license for cadastral surveyors.
