Geodesy and Geoinformation Science

Master of Science (M.Sc.)

About the Program

The Master's program Geodesy and Geoinformation Science is characterised by linking geodesy to areas of research and content of teaching in the field of geoinformation science. Geoinformation science is based on geodetic reference systems, which are prerequisites for data acquisition, processing, updating, and analysis of spatial databases. These requirements are also important in modelling and visualisation, as well as for navigation and guidance techniques or location based services. Geodetic methods encompass the techniques of terrestrial surveying, photogrammetry, and remote sensing technology. Object modelling goes along with statistics and error estimation. The program takes four semesters and comprises a total of 120 credit points. In the first semester, students select modules from a basis catalogue totaling at least 30 CP. In the 2nd and 3rd semesters, students select one field of specialization (major subject) from: Geoinformation Technology, Space Geodesy and Navigation, Engineering Surveying and Estimation Theory, or Computer Vision and Remote Sensing. The major subject must total at least 21 CP, including a project seminar of at least 6 CP. Students also choose modules worth 9 CP from each remaining thematic block (minor subjects).
