Ingénierie du territoire (Geomatics, land management and civil engineering MIT)

• Theoretical and professional specialisation (60 ECTS)
• Master’s thesis: AR&D project supervised by a member of the teaching staff (30 ECTS)

The accent is as much on developing personal, methodological and entrepreneurial skills as on acquiring technical knowledge. The MIT course also enables students to select a profile that gives them the theoretical basis for admission to the examination for the Swiss vocational examination (brevet fédéral) as a surveying engineer.
The MIT course is intended for holders of Bachelor’s degrees in Geomatics and Civil Engineering, as well as students with a qualification adjudged equivalent. Additional studies may be required if the student’s education to date does not satisfy the prerequisites for the chosen profile.

Course profile
The course profile is defined by the individual student with the support of a mentor from the teaching staff, and with the agreement of the MIT course director. The MIT is a specialised course involving subjects connected with developed land and the built environment:

• Advanced and practical geomatics
