Major (Course): Surveying and Geomatics Engineering

Program: Master

Introduction:

Department of surveying and geomatics engineering has been established in 2008 to advance knowledge and educate students in the fields of remote sensing (RS) and geo-spatial information science (GIS) engineering. As one of the first departments offering higher geo-spatial education in Iran, this department is missioned to achieve academic excellence in education, research, and innovation at both national and international levels.  

Since established, more than 100 master students have been successfully graduated from this department. As the first international department of the university, the department of surveying and geomatics engineering provides the students with advanced laboratories and equipment (such as UAVs, different sensors, spectroradiometers, and GPS) to help their researches and studies in the RS and GIS fields.
