Study Programme in Land Management No translation available 180 cr

A profession where you set the limits

The field of work is extensive - you could provide instructions on where roads and buildings are to be built, take measurements to collate geographical information for varying purposes or be responsible for financial and legal questions in connection to property changes, for example transfer of ownership.

Modern technology revolutionizes

In recent times, modern computer technology has revolutionized the possibilities for collating data and providing digital map images with information. This could, for example, relate to building a three dimensional property registry or presenting information on which restaurants and shops are available in your local area.

Geographical information systems have put Gävle on the map

With Lantmäteriet – the Swedish mapping, cadastral and land registration authority, as one of the city's largest employers and a handful of leading companies within geographical information systems (GIS), Gävle is without doubt a centre for surveying. If you add a combination of a large number of retirements and an urgent need for new technical skills, you will see that the future for those who choose to study to become a land surveyor at the University of Gävle is very bright.

Smart choice

A smart choice of education for those who want to be involved in building the future society.
