As the only department in Hong Kong that offers qualifications and courses in geomatics, LSGI provides an enriching undergraduate experience and diversified career pathways.

LSGI students are given many opportunities to acquire a wide range of knowledge, from traditional surveying to modern technologies. We are encouraged to learn not only from books but also from experiences, including survey camps, exchange programmes and overseas internships.

With support from LSGI, my classmates and I were equipped with the professional knowledge and experience required to pursue our dream careers upon graduation. I am also very fortunate to have had the opportunity to study abroad as a MASc student at the University of British Columbia in Canada, giving me a fresh perspective from which  to explore and innovate new ideas to serve society. 

My university days were eye-opening and life-changing; I collaborated with the brightest students, made friends for life from diverse backgrounds and was inspired by pioneering professors with a passion for teaching.

If you are an active person with a thirst for knowledge, LSGI can offer you a wonderful learning experience.

The curriculum includes practical exercises in managing a wide variety of survey equipment, such as total stations, laser scanners and drones. You will also gain hands-on experience in computer-aided drawing (CAD), building information modelling (BIM) and related software. Students can choose electives from the land surveying, geo-informatics and underground utilities subjects, according to their preferred specialist area.

Through small group sessions and practicals, students and staff build communicative and close relationships. Staff are passionate about enhancing students’ learning experiences and helping to resolve their academic problems.

LSGI has equipped me with all the essential knowledge to begin a professional career path in land surveying. The Department has close links with the industry thanks to the cooperative network maintained with its alumni. The students’ society (LSGISS) facilitates various activities organised by professional bodies, through which students can gain a better understanding of the industry and refine their career plans. I am now working on the other side of the planet as an assistant geospatial surveyor in Birmingham, UK. What a world!
