The Master’s in Surveying and Mapping at Chang'an University is a postgraduate program that focuses on advanced techniques for spatial data acquisition, analysis, and geographic information management in modern engineering and land development projects. The program provides in-depth knowledge in areas such as geodesy, remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), photogrammetry, digital mapping, and spatial data modeling, enabling students to accurately measure, analyze, and represent the Earth’s surface for planning and infrastructure applications. Its curriculum integrates theoretical coursework with laboratory research, field surveying practice, and geospatial data processing projects to develop professional competencies in mapping technologies, land information systems, and spatial analysis. Emphasis is placed on the use of modern geospatial technologies and digital mapping tools in urban planning, transportation engineering, environmental monitoring, and resource management. Graduates are prepared for careers in surveying departments, urban planning agencies, geospatial technology firms, infrastructure development organizations, and research institutions, or for pursuing doctoral studies in surveying, mapping, or related geoinformatics disciplines.
Research Field:
Geodesy and Survey Engineering, Cartography and Geographic Information Engineering, Photographical Survey and Remote Sensing.
