Bachelor of Surveying

Our Bachelor of Surveying degree is designed to train surveyors capable of meeting the biggest global surveying and town planning challenges. As a surveyor you could work as a geodesist analysing polar motion and measuring the movements of the earth’s crust.

Surveying is taught to students from Agriculture, Civil, Building & Architecture and Mining Engineering. All three courses Surveying, GIS and Property Studies are also offered during the holiday sessions through the GEOMATICS Program.

The subject provides students the opportunity to study the basic principles of  Computer Assisted Drafting and to acquire fundamental skills to plot engineering and cadastral plans using digital field survey data  including relevant  basic concepts such as map projection, geometry construction and manipulation,  electronic data transfer, creating plot file and the prevailing mapping systems used in Papua New Guinea.
