My
English not too good, but I will try to explain about the majors that I have
learned today, namely Geodesy. I am a student from Gadjah Mada University,
Indonesia. Gadjah Mada University is the
best university in Indonesia, but how about Geodesy? Geodesy is not very famous
in Indonesia, but now it is becoming known a lot of people. Many people known
geodesy as surveying. In Gadjah Mada University, geodesy is the part of
Engineering Faculty. When I wrote “why you should choose Geodesy” in bahasa,
there are a lot of people comment and ask me about Geodesy,its mean there are
little information about Geodesy in bahasa, and because of that, I get many new
friends from my blog.
Now I will try to give my opinion in English, why you shoul choose Geodesy.
Now I will try to give my opinion in English, why you shoul choose Geodesy.
1. There
are many jobs that need a surveyor or geodetic engineering graduates
A
surveyor can work in many work place. Surveyor can work in mining company, oil
and gas company, or construction company. And aslo geodetic engineering
graduates can be a navigator in survey vessel. In government, geodesy can
contribute in all jobs that releated to making a Maps.
2. Graduates
graduate geodetic still slightly, but job opportunities are very much.
The
reason number 2 maybe more suitable to Indonesia, because there are a few university that have the major geodesy. How about in the wold? I don’t
know many information about geodesy outside Indonesia. Maybe you know? So lets
share here J
3.
Good in salary
Maybe
many people fave a different view about the meaning “a good salary”, 1 milion
can be very much for some one, or can be very little for someone else. But become
a surveyor in oil and gas company, I think every one agree that surveyor in oil
and gas company have a good salary.
I Think that 3 reason why you should choose Geodesy. So, what you learn when you choose Geodesy or surveying? In Indonesia, I learn how to measure distance and angle, how to make a map. Geodesy also learned orbit satellite, measure using Global Positioning System. I also learned hydrographic survey, Geographic Information System, Map Projection,fotogrametri, remote sensing, and many more that related to making a maps.
I think that all about
my opinion for Geodesy, and how about you? What you lernd in Geodesy?
