Study of geodesy

Study

The Institute is the guaranteeing workplace of the study program Geodesy and Land Cadastre in the 1^st level of higher education and the study program Engineering Surveying and Real Estate Register of the 2^nd level of higher education, accredited in the field of study 5.1.3 Geodesy and Cartography. By studying the study program of the 3^rd level of higher education Mining surveying and geodesy, accredited in the field of study 5.2.33 Mining surveying and geodesy, the graduates will learn the basics of scientific methods, research and development in areas not only mine surveying, but also global geodesy, engineering surveying, photogrammetry, remote sensing, real estate cadastre, land consolidation, geoinformatics, cartography and geography.

2nd level of higher education

Engineering surveying and Cadastre of Real Estates

Theoretical fundamentals of graduate are based on studying exact and natural sciences – mathematics and physics. Disciplines of professional theoretical character – global geodesy, cosmic geodesy and mathematical cartography contribute to form the professional profile of graduate. Mastering disciplines with technical and application character, including engineering surveying, photogrammetry, geographical information systems, land consolidation and metrology in geodesy, is the core of the study. Disciplines as – geoecology, personal and communication management, land law and basics of forensic, which are present in the field of study plan of approximately 15%, contribute to humanisation of the study.

 Graduate of the 2nd level is fully prepared to study the 3rd level (PhD.) of the university education in the field of study Mine Surveying and Geodesy and in relative, resp. more different fields of study. However, he also finds application in all areas of geodesy, cartography and cadastre of real estates, especially in theoretical areas in discovering the Earth and its physical demonstrations, building up geodetic networks in design and realisation of constructions, creation of country environment, information systems on territory and cadastre, engineering activities of land consolidation, creation of maps, map series and spatial systems. Graduate can also work in state and investor organisations, in the state administration at central, regional and local level, as well as in a business sector. Under current legislation (based on the Trades Licensing Act), graduate can become an active participant in the business community of SR immediately after graduation. According to the Act. No. 215/1996 Z.z. (the Act on Geodesy and Cartography), only he can obtain an authorisation license to verify results of selected activities in the field of geodesy and cartography and the membership in the Chamber of Surveyors and Cartographers.
