Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 GGE Graduates Worldwide

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 GGE Undergraduate Program Background  Originally begun as 5-year Program built atop Civil Engineering  Developed into its own specialization by late 1960s  First attempt at 4-year program in 1977  Modifications through late 1980s and 1990s  Updated again in 2007  Originally begun as 5-year Program built atop Civil Engineering  Developed into its own specialization by late 1960s  First attempt at 4-year program in 1977  Modifications through late 1980s and 1990s  Updated again in 2007

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 Modifying the Early Curriculum  Early efforts primarily from within  Differentiation from Civil Engineering  More attention to scientific underpinnings  Greater attention to computing fundamentals applications of computers  Increasing focus on technological areas of interest to individual faculty members  (Minimal) External Influence primarily from large institutions  Federal & provincial mapping & charting agencies  Large multidisciplinary companies  Early efforts primarily from within  Differentiation from Civil Engineering  More attention to scientific underpinnings  Greater attention to computing fundamentals applications of computers  Increasing focus on technological areas of interest to individual faculty members  (Minimal) External Influence primarily from large institutions  Federal & provincial mapping & charting agencies  Large multidisciplinary companies

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 Today's Accreditation Requirements  Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB)  Canadian Council on Land Surveying (CCLS)  Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)  Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB)  Canadian Council on Land Surveying (CCLS)  Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June Curriculum

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 Three Major Trends Observed Proportionate increase in geomatics-specific content overall; 2.Corresponding relative reduction in "Other Engineering and CS" and "Basic Sciences and Math" components; 3.Dramatic increase in program breadth; 4.Greater attention to "Professional Surveying" Components; and 5.Steady reduction in the treatment of photogrammetry and production cartography. 1.Proportionate increase in geomatics-specific content overall; 2.Corresponding relative reduction in "Other Engineering and CS" and "Basic Sciences and Math" components; 3.Dramatic increase in program breadth; 4.Greater attention to "Professional Surveying" Components; and 5.Steady reduction in the treatment of photogrammetry and production cartography.

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 Drivers for Current Change  Internal  Reflecting changes in faculty members  Program taking too long for students to complete -- possibility of becoming uncompetitive  Accreditation-Related  More coverage of selected legal and business management issues (CCLS)  Stronger open-ended design component and team-based projects (CEAB)  Employer Feedback  New technologies for data capture  More business management skills  Internal  Reflecting changes in faculty members  Program taking too long for students to complete -- possibility of becoming uncompetitive  Accreditation-Related  More coverage of selected legal and business management issues (CCLS)  Stronger open-ended design component and team-based projects (CEAB)  Employer Feedback  New technologies for data capture  More business management skills

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 New 2007 Curriculum

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 New 2007 Curriculum  Provides updated view and treatment of content.  Better meets requirements of both CEAB and CCLS.  Maintains greater breadth than any other Canadian program, but with good balance of core and elective courses.  May be completed by the typical capable student in 4 years.  Provides updated view and treatment of content.  Better meets requirements of both CEAB and CCLS.  Maintains greater breadth than any other Canadian program, but with good balance of core and elective courses.  May be completed by the typical capable student in 4 years.

Scientia Est Potentia Joint Conference Prague, June 2007 Curriculum Change: Points of Debate  Internally-driven vs. Profession-driven  "Curriculum Creep" -- Depth vs. breadth of geomatics-specific content  Adequate balance of "Science & technology" vs. "Soft Skills" vital to professionals  Creating a potent Learning Experience that will stand the test of time.  Internally-driven vs. Profession-driven  "Curriculum Creep" -- Depth vs. breadth of geomatics-specific content  Adequate balance of "Science & technology" vs. "Soft Skills" vital to professionals  Creating a potent Learning Experience that will stand the test of time.
