Dunwoody Land Surveying
Dunwoody’s Land Surveying certificate was created for those who already have a bachelor’s degree and are looking to become professional, licensed land surveyors. Gain field experience using industry-standard technology, work on real projects with actual clients, and receive instruction from industry experts.
Opportunities to participate in national competitions will help build your resume, and hands-on, outdoor projects and labs get you out of the classroom and into the environment you’ll be working in.
Software you will use include a suite of computer-aided drafting programs (CAD) including AutoCAD and Revit. Upon graduation, you’ll be eligible to take the Fundamentals of Land Surveying (FLS) exam—the first step in becoming a licensed land surveyor.
The certificate consists of 22 technical credits, which can be completed in just two semesters.
Credits earned in the Land Surveying certificate directly transfer into Dunwoody’s Surveying & Civil Engineering Technology associate’s degree.
” I had recently received my GIS degree but wasn’t satisfied with where it was taking me, so I enrolled in Dunwoody’s surveying program. The hands-on learning was great, and when I started my summer internship and current job I was able to jump right in. I had the interview for my current position before I had even finished classes. “
