Abstract:

Romanian geodesic education started in Iasi in 1813 through the School of Border and Engineering at the Royal Academy. The university education in the geodesic field continued in Iasi, Galati and Bucharest. If in 1818 we had the first 32 geodesic engineers, today we have about 500 geodesic engineers annually. After 1990 the field of geodetic engineering became attractive in 12 university centres in our country (Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, Iasi, Craiova, Brasov etc.)

Given the increased interest in training engineers in this field we are trying to see what the future of this job is from the perspective of those who will practice it.

We will analyse the current situation at the level of each university centre from the perspective of the curriculum, the number of graduates, the degree of employment in the field and the dynamics of the modernization of the educational process.

At the end of the study we will try to answer the questions that grind many colleagues: do we have enough geodetic specialists at national level and are they able to meet with the demands of the labour market?

Starting from the fact that we must prove that everything is a measure, but that everything can be measured we must impose by university standards respect for the job of geodesic engineer.
