Why Study Here?
Broad and Comprehensive Engineering Education
Our undergraduate programs offer students
a broad and comprehensive education in the various branches of
Surveying and the numerous Spatial Information Systems disciplines.
From Year three a wide range of elective courses are available
which allow students to specialise in different Surveying and
Spatial Information topics.
In addition to the undergraduate programs, the school offers
several postgraduate coursework programs,
through theMasters of Engineering Science and Graduate Diploma
programs.
Excellence in Research
The School has a strong
international reputation for the quality of its research in the
areas of wireless, ground-based and satellite-based positioning
technology and applications within the
Satellite Navigation and Positioning (SNAP) Laboratory. Although
the primary focus is Global Navigation Satellite Systems such
as GPS, the School also has active research projects in inertial
navigation systems, pseudolites, mobilephone positioning, and
integrated navigation and imaging systems, and plays a significant
role in the Co-operative Research
Centre for Spatial Information. There is also a research
program in digital photogrammetry and image processing.
Students undertaking postgraduate research
programs make an invaluable contribution to the School's research
effort. Visit our Research
section for more information.
Overseas and Local Recognition
The Bachelor of Engineering Degree is recognised by the New South
Wales Board of Surveyors & Spatial Information (BOSSI) as
meeting the requirements for a Registered Surveyor in the state
of New South Wales. The University of New South Wales is the only
university in NSW that offers a degree accredited with both the
Institution of Surveyors, and the Institution of Engineers Australia.
Substantial or complete recognition is also accorded to the program
by overseas survey/geomatics accreditation agencies.
