Geomatics Engineering - Florida Atlantic University

Geomatics Engineering from Florida Atlantic University is a Campus Bachelor Geotechnical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Geomatics Engineering strongly relates to environmental disciplines, such as geology and geography (geosciences), and it is also closely aligned with civil engineering and with urban and regional planning. It is not uncommon for an individual to be licensed as both a professional engineer and a professional surveyor. The program of study leading to the Bachelor of Science in Geomatics Engineering (B.S.G.E.) reflects the expanse of the profession. Students complete course work in basic science and mathematics, engineering sciences, and the main disciplines in geomatics engineering . Because of the major impact geomatics engineers have on society, the curriculum also requires students to pursue studies in the social sciences and the humanities. Geomatics Engineering Vision and Mission The Geomatics Engineering program delivers a quality educational experience in surveying, mapping, and emerging geomatics technologies throughout the FAU service area and beyond and makes a significant contribution to the needs of a growing southeast Florida community. Program faculty focuses on student-centered learning methodologies that transform students into are active learners, motivated to serve society. This program values ethical behavior, critical thinking, innovation, individual responsibility, thoughtful risk taking, teamwork, and leadership.
