B.E. (Geo Informatics)Bachelor of Engineering in Geo Informatics
Geoinformatics is a science as well as a technology which uses the concepts from domains like cartography, geography, geo-technology and geosciences coupled with basic knowledge of science and technology. This science uses spatial information to acquire, extract, classify process and qualify information for specific purposes. Further, portrayal and disseminating of that knowledge is often carried out for analytical purposes. Normally a research oriented field, geoinfirmatics has a lot of application right from urban planning, environment protection to survey technology and land use mapping. It is a great tool for civil engineers to have. The Bachelor of Engineering in geoinfromatics is an apt program for learners who want to start off a career in GIS, geomatics and allied fields. In a nutshell students learn the technique of processing and simulating data that is scientific in nature which comes hand in the construction, maintenance and monitoring of structures, their qualitative analysis and environmental modeling leading to a well rounded career encompassing software, simulation and digital technology. After completing this course, graduates can expect career profiles like GIS engineer, GIS technicians, GIS and GPS software specialist, urban planner, Remote Sensing and Photogrammetric expert, Land Surveyor, Maintenance Engineer. Course content includes Mathematical design, Engineering mechanics, Environmental studies, Engineering graphics, Computer programming, Mineral exploration, Basics of GIS and remote sensing, Assets management, Directed research, Digital Photogrammetry, Spatial Database Management System, Unconventional Energy systems, Thermal remote sensing, mapping for urban planning and resource management. Students graduating out of this program are sure to find themselves working in an exciting career which is also rewarding in terms of satisfaction both financial and career wise.
