"This course covers various more advanced and applied aspects of contemporary land and engineering surveying and includes a major field work exercise.\n\nOutcome:\nBy the end of this course students will be able to:\r\n\r\n■ Relate the previously acquired principles of surveying to Applied Land Surveying;\r\n\r\n■ Plan and execute a laser scanning project from reconnaissance to final 3d deliverable;\r\n\r\n■ Create a suitable survey plan for a large scale topographic survey problem perhaps forming novel solutions on the way to becoming independent and critical thinkers;\r\n\r\n■ Collect topographic field data with a range of modern equipment in a manner that is consistent with the principles of surveying demonstrating that they are becoming subject specialists and ethically and socially aware;\r\n\r\n■ Demonstrate that they are effective communicators by preparing and delivering verbal and written reports on the progress, results and analysis of typical, professional surveying activities against realistic industry specifications;\r\n\r\n■ Organise their survey group to meet authentic industry challenges including time and asset management showing they have become experienced collaborators;\r\n\r\n■ Develop their own confidence and leadership skills showing they have become confident, adaptable, resourceful and responsible;\r\n\r\n■ Evaluate their own development of the Glasgow Graduate Attributes, including confidence and leadership skills using specific examples illustrated in a personal reflective diary." . .

"This MSc in Geospatial & Mapping Sciences focuses on understanding the theory and practice of geospatial data collection and management. Topics covered include land, engineering and hydrographic surveying, data and geospatial information quality. The course draws on research and the latest developments in the field of geomatics, with a strong practical component. Key applications of geospatial skills support sustainable development, including measuring land and location of assets (e.g. transport routes, location of electric cables, forests), monitoring subsidence and sea level change, documenting heritage using laser scanning, and setting up and managing the coordinate system/mapping for a country. This programme is strongly endorsed by industry, accredited by both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors."@en . . . . . . .

"Career opportunities include land surveyor, engineering surveyor, hydrographic surveyor, GIS specialist, environmental consulting. There is currently a very high demand for surveyors, especially in hydrographic survey, in support of offshore oil and renewable energy engineering and maintenance. Several of the key employers visit us each year to recruit students. In addition to the offshore energy industry, land surveyors are in demand in many parts of the world to support mining operations, major civil engineering projects and to provide surveying services for Land Registration. A strong background in data capture, datums and co-ordinate systems, and data processing can also be of value in the GIS and environmental management sectors.\r\n\r\nRecent graduates have gone on to work for companies such as the Ordnance Survey, Glanville Consultants, Jacobs, Babcocks, KOREC, Malcolm Hughes Land Surveyors, Andrews Survey, Morgan Stanley, Fugro, AECOM, UTEC and Subsea 7. Positions include Land Surveyor, Offshore Surveyor, Analyst, Hydrographic Surveyor and Graduate Supervisor."@en . "no data" . "TRUE" . "Downstream"@en . . . . . . . . . . . . .
