1. DEPARTMENT OF GEOMATICS AND SURVEYING
The technological advancement in surveying and geoinformatics in the construction and mining industry require engineers to gain advanced specialized knowledge in surveying and geoinformatics. The specialized fundamental knowledge will respond to the National Development Strategies such as vision 2030 by contributing to infrastructure development. The BEng programme in surveying and geomatics is meant to provide the students with appropriate theoretical inputs and opportunities for hands –on training in land surveying and geoinformatics. It is dedicated to equip students with the design , analytical, implementation and testing skills in surveying and geomatics systems in a bid to improve effectiveness and efficiency and , the adoption of cutting-edge technologies in the surveying and geomatics field. The five-year BEng degree program is premised on research and innovation, rooted in heritage –based learning. In pursuit of this mandate the curriculum emphasizes the principles and applications of modern surveying techniques and integrate them with advanced geomatics approaches to fully enhance technical cognition while developing the ability to put knowledge into practice for the benefit of the country and the region.
