Course Description
Surveying is a highly specialised professional discipline that involves measuring the surface of the Earth and its features. Surveyors use sophisticated technology and scientific principles to provide practical surveying solutions and services to numerous areas of government and industry.
Curtin offers the only comprehensive honours degree in surveying in Western Australia. The course draws upon elements from a diversity of disciplines, including computing, engineering, environmental science, geography, geology, management, mathematics and physics.
You'll study specialist areas such as cadastral surveying, engineering surveying, geodesy and photogrammetry; and related areas such as hydrographic surveying, land development, mine surveying, planning and remote sensing.
You’ll also become familiar with high-tech areas such as airborne and marine navigation, drone surveying, digital mapping, land and environmental management, laser scanning, satellite positioning and specialised alignment surveying.
This course has an alternative pathway that enables you to focus on mine surveying in your third year, at the WA School of Mines (Kalgoorlie Campus). In this pathway, you'll graduate instead with a Bachelor of Surveying Technology (Mine Surveying).
