BSc Geomatic Engineering

BSc Geomatic Engineering at KAAF University College is a degree in the Faculty of Engineering & Computer Science. It focuses on the measurement, analysis, and mapping of the land and environment using modern technologies. Entry to this programme is less competitive than many other engineering courses, but you still need solid WASSCE results to be considered.

What geomatic engineering covers

Programmes of this kind train you to capture, process, and present spatial data. You learn land surveying, satellite positioning, geographic information systems (GIS), and remote sensing. You also build skills in mathematics, computing, and data analysis, which let you produce maps, models, and reports used in planning, construction, and resource management.

How hard it is to get a place

Admission to BSc Geomatic Engineering at KAAF is less competitive than for many other engineering programmes. That means your WASSCE grades do not need to be at the very top to be considered. However, you still need strong passes in the required subjects, so check that your results meet the published requirements. The same programme at the University of Mines and Technology is also less competitive.

What you can do with the degree

Geomatic engineers are in demand wherever precise measurements of the physical world are needed. Graduates typically work in surveying, mapping, land administration, construction, and environmental monitoring. Many go on to roles in government agencies, private firms, or as self-employed surveyors.
