The Land Surveying and Geographical Information Systems Engineering MSc at Budapest University of Technology and Economics builds knowledge in land surveying and GIS engineering, with topics including satellite positioning systems, land management, remote sensing, geospatial data analysis, and modelling of 3D objects and digital twin concepts. Students study fundamental sciences, land surveying and GIS engineering sciences, and economic sciences, management, and human science.
The programme runs for 3 semesters and includes 90 ECTS. It is organised around obligatory core subjects, obligatory specialisation subjects, elective specialisation subjects, and a Master Thesis Project. Students complete a thesis project alongside core and specialisation training, including courses such as GNSS Theory and Applications, Automated Surveying, Applied Geoinformatics, and Mapping Technologies.
