Diploma in Geomatics

Course Title: Diploma in Geomatics Engineering
Duration: 3 Years
Academic Year: Semester System
Affiliated to: CTEVT

The course is aimed at producing middle level  technical human resource in the field of Geomatics.  

This course is based on the job required to perform by a Geomatics technician at different related  industries and organizations in Nepal and abroad. The Diploma in Geomatics Engineering program  extends over three years. Each year is divided into two semesters. There are six semesters in total  within the period of three years. It is designed to produce middle level competent Geomatics  technicians equipped with knowledge and skills related to the land surveying, engineering/  construction surveying and Geographical Information System and applications. The study of  Geomatics Engineering provides the ample opportunities of employment and self employment in the  field of surveying, mapping and GIS.
