Overview

Overview of Bachelor of Engineering (Geomatic) in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia

Geomatic Engineering is an area of technology for measuring, managing, presentation and analising the geospatial data relating the earth. Geospatial data are obtained from various sources including observation of satellites orbiting the earth, sensors that are in the air, sea and terrestrial instruments. These data are processed and manipulated using computer and latest softwares. Also included in the area of geospatial are the computer mapping, remote sensing for monitoring the environment and positioning as well as precise navigation using Global Positioning System (GPS).

Bachelor of Engineering (Geomatic) programme in the Department of Geoinformation, Faculty of Geoinformation and Real Estate, Universiti Technologi Malaysia is one of the oldest programme in Malaysia. Before 1994 the programme is known as Bachelor of Surveying (Land). This programme obtained full accreditation from the Board of Land Surveyor for Peninsular Malaysia and also from the Public Services Department of Malaysia.

 Programme Objectives

To produce graduates that have:
i) In-depth knowledge in geomatic engineering, competent and skillful in managing geomatic engineering projects.
ii) Ability to use techniques, skills and modern geomatic engineering tools to solve geomatic engineering and related problems creatively.
iii) Ability to analyze, maintain, update and synthesis geo-spatial data for speci c purposes and in compliance with the relevant laws.
iv) Innovative attitude and initiatives towards creating an effective and ef cient geomatic profession.

Graduates that have successfully completed the program could have the following outcome:
• Understand the theoretical and practical aspects related to surveying sciences and mapping
• Planning and carry out the surveying work and mapping using the latest technology
• Maintain and updating geospatial data
• Professional attitude in line with the ethic and profession of a professional land surveyor
• Understanding and appreciating other related professions such as GIS and Remote Sensing
• Analysis geospatial data for particular purposes and abiding with the related laws
• Teamworking with other disciplines
• Able to communicate ef ciently
• Able to use the relevant information technology

  • PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

Students who are registered to this programme are requested to enroll for 133 credit points throughout 4 years (8 semesters) of full time study.

Students will undergo practical training for two weeks known as Survey Camp programme (SGHU 2901) during long holiday period, and have to attend Industrial Training for one semester.

During the Industrial Training, students will be stationed at the Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (JUPEM) and Licensed Land Surveyors Company for 1 semester (i.e 15 weeks). Students will be exposed to several surveying and mapping activities. Final year students will be required to accomplish Final Year Project, which is equivalent to 6 credits.

The distribution of credit points are as follows:
No.           Course Category         Credit Total                   Percentage (%)
1.              Core Programme                      80                                 60
