Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl

Geomaticians deal with precise information about spaces, their nature, use and characteristics. The aim is to make spaces or demarcated areas efficiently usable. This information is necessary to ensure that this can be achieved and that the consequences of further use can be assessed. The work of a geomatics technician includes recording spatial information correctly and to a high standard, evaluating it and processing it in a meaningful way so that it can be used appropriately. Graphics, statistics or entire project reports serve as an aid here.

If you have already completed vocational training as a geomatics technician and have also completed the vocational baccalaureate, you meet the requirements and can start the Bachelor's degree course in geomatics at selected universities of applied sciences. You will be trained as an expert engineer and will be able to carry out complex activities in connection with spatial surveying and the processing of geoinformation. You will have a perfect command of the mathematical and scientific basics. You will skillfully apply your know-how to the challenging task of collecting and processing spatial information. Information and offers for this exciting Bachelor's degree course in geomatics can be found on the Swiss education portal.
