What is the major of Surveying and Mapping Engineering in Chengdu University of Technology?

Comparative advantage: Surveying and mapping includes surveying and mapping engineering and remote sensing science and technology. Based on the talent training idea of "thick foundation and wide caliber", the "large-scale enrollment" model is implemented. After entering school, students will study public basic courses and subject basic courses, lay a solid foundation in surveying and mapping, and divide the second and third grades according to relevant policies, which is conducive to cultivating students with solid foundation, excellent specialty, strong practical ability and strong innovation consciousness.

Broad prospects: spatial information technology is known as the three frontier fields of science in the world today, and surveying and mapping engineering is its main supporting major. The continuous improvement of Beidou navigation system in China and the rapid development of high-tech such as aerial photography of unmanned aerial vehicles, computers and networks have injected new vitality into surveying and mapping engineering. This major aims to cultivate and master the basic theories, methods and technologies of surveying and mapping science and technology, and can be engaged in engineering surveying, map drawing, navigation and positioning, with broad employment prospects.

Remote sensing science and technology is a new interdisciplinary subject, which is the key technical support of the national major project "High Resolution Earth Observation System" and provides important information and technical support for land and resources investigation, environmental protection, disaster monitoring, major projects, national defense construction and other industries. This major trains senior engineers and technicians in UAV remote sensing, remote sensing technology, geoscience application, computer vision and the acquisition, processing, interpretation, analysis and development of graphic and image information.
