Overview

The UNSW School of Surveying and Geospatial Engineering (SAGE) is one of 10 Schools in Australia’s largest Faculty of Engineering. Our graduates are much sought after and have become leaders in industry, government and academia.

The School's undergraduate programs are in the two streams of Surveying and in Geoinformation Systems and graduates have a wide range of career choices. There are also dual undergradaute degree programs leading to the award of the BE in combination with BSc, BA, BCom and LLB degrees.

The School has a long and close relationship with the Institution of Surveyors, NSW (ISNSW), the Surveying and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI) and the geospatial information industry in general. The undergraduate degree BE (Surveying) offers a pathway to registration as a surveyor in the state of NSW. Both the BE (Surveying) and BE (GIS) degrees are accredited by Engineers Australia.

The School has an enviable research reputation, nationally and internationally, with Australia's largest concentration of academic research in positioning and navigation, using wireless, ground-based and satellite-based technology, and selected topics areas in Earth observation.

While the main research focus is Global Navigation Satellite Systems, such as GPS, the School also has research strengths in surveying, geodesy, inertial navigation systems, pseudolites, mobilephone positioning, integrated navigation and imaging systems, photogrammetry, Lidar, geodesy and radar remote sensing. This research is conducted under the banner of Navigation and Earth Observation by School staff and postgraduate Masters and PhD students.

The School has strong links with preeminent research and teaching institutions in North America, Europe and Asia, and School staff hold leadership positions in international and national scientific and professional bodies.
