Implementation of this programme is guided by the need to provide leadership and stewardship in the acquisition, development and application of knowledge in geospatial engineering, to inspire rational and optimal use of land resources.
Rationale
This programme is a key contributor to the development of human resources for infrastructure development, physical planning, land administration and management, education and management and use of geospatial information by various government organizations and private business enterprises.
The goal of this programme is to provide learners with the opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills for collecting, storing, analysing, managing and disseminating geospatial information.
At the end of this programme, the learner should be able to:
- Explain disciplines relevant for enabling and developing spatial concepts in Geospatial Engineering
- Apply formal and theoretical foundation e.g. Physics, Maths and ICT in solving Geospatial Engineering Problems
- Collect spatial data using various Geospatial techniques;
- Process Geospatial data using various application tools.
- Manage Geospatial Engineering projects and information using various techniques including LIMS, Web-Based tools, Mobile Application tools as well as visualization tools.
