Surveyors are in high demand, and this course will give you the skills to take advantage of a worldwide employment market.
We have superb links with the industry and run a regular programme of guest speakers. You'll also visit major projects in London - one of the world's most dynamic construction areas.
You'll undertake a 50-50 split of academic and practical work. This will involve fieldwork projects, including a residential scheme, and classroom and laboratory exercises.
You'll also be able to apply for student membership of the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors - an international qualifying body dedicated to the regulation, education and training of surveyors working in civil engineering.
Surveying involves the precise measurement of spatial data - information that's crucial to a huge range of construction projects, on land and offshore.
On large building projects, surveyors are the first on-site to establish the basic measurements and the last to leave, checking everything is in the right place.
If you want a degree in surveying, but don't meet the standard entry requirements, then you can apply for the foundation year,
First, we prepare you for your degree during the foundation year, bringing you up to speed with academic skills and a firm grounding in the subject. Then you can go on to do the full undergraduate degree.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
You'll learn the techniques required to produce the reliable spatial data on which all construction tasks depend.
You won't just be measuring. You'll be analysing data, presenting it and managing it. And of course re-measuring… just to be sure.
The course involves a range of ways to map geographical features. You'll learn about land surveying and geodesy, which involves taking into account the earth's curvature when you are measuring large areas.
Other fields of study will involve photogrammetry - the science of making measurements from photographs - laser scanning, remote sensing, and hydrographic surveying, typically investigating the seabed.
We'll also introduce you to cadastral surveying, which combines technical and legal knowledge to establish boundaries.
The modules you'll take include land and construction surveying, legal and regulatory framework, computer programming, data acquisition and 3D modelling, engineering surveying and sea surveying.
All match the required standards of the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors (ICES).

YOUR FUTURE CAREER
This course has a superb record in getting graduates into employment. Likely UK destinations include Highways England, Network Rail, Thames Water and local authorities.
The emphasis placed internationally on precision measurement of boundaries in property sales means surveyors are hugely valued worldwide. Many overseas students who graduate from this course return home to work in their government land survey departments.
Other graduates have moved into UK companies specialising in surveying land for new houses or roads.
The course is also a route into forensic surveying, which establishes precise data for use in court cases. You might be involved in checking measurements following a serious road accident, or attending a serious crime scene, such as the aftermath of bomb explosion.
Your knowledge of hydrographic surveying will equip you for worldwide employment opportunities in the fields of offshore gas and oil exploration. These skills are also required for tasks such as searching for aircraft which have disappeared over the ocean. The search in the Pacific for a missing Malaysian Airlines plane in 2014 involved hydrographic surveyors.
Recent UEL graduates in Surveying and Mapping Sciences have gone on to land jobs with Fugro, Plowman Craven, Ordnance Survey, Scopus, Survey Solutions and Crossrail.
There are various options through which a student can get a post study work visa in the UK.
Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur Visa for the graduates with a genuine and credible business idea.
Tier 2 (General) is the leading immigration visa to work in the UK.
