The Pre-Diploma in Survey Engineering (AMIN) at Kailali Polytechnic Institute offers a practical pathway for land surveying and mapping students. This 18-month program follows the official curriculum prescribed by the Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT) and is designed for SEE graduates who seek to build technical expertise in surveying and geospatial data collection.
The curriculum focuses on both theoretical foundations and hands-on applications. Key areas of study include:
Principles of Surveying
Engineering Drawing and Drafting
Geodetic Surveying
Topographic Surveying
Land Measurement and Plotting
Introduction to Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
Construction Materials and Methods
Applied Mathematics and Physics
Environmental and Occupational Safety
Each subject enhances the understanding of surveying techniques used in modern construction, land development, and infrastructure planning.
Develop a strong technical base in land surveying.
Prepare students for immediate employment or further education.
Build competence in using surveying instruments and software.
Promote ethical practices and precision in professional surveying work.
Survey Engineering is essential in construction, urban planning, infrastructure development, and environmental studies. Graduates can find opportunities in the private and public sectors, particularly in mapping, land registration, and civil projects.
Upon successful completion, students will:
