Graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering - Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering from the University of New Brunswick (UNB) opens up a wide array of career opportunities in the rapidly expanding field of geospatial sciences. 

Land Surveying: Many graduates pursue careers as land surveyors, responsible for accurately measuring and mapping the Earth's surface features. They work in land development, construction, urban planning, and resource management projects, ensuring the precise location and boundaries of properties, infrastructure, and natural landscapes.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Analyst: GIS analysts use specialized software to capture, analyze, and visualize geospatial data for various applications. They work in sectors such as environmental management, urban planning, transportation, agriculture, and public health, creating maps, conducting spatial analysis, and making data-driven decisions.

Remote Sensing Specialist: Remote sensing specialists utilize satellite, aerial, and drone imagery to monitor and analyze the Earth's surface and atmosphere. They work in environmental monitoring, natural resource management, disaster response, and agriculture, interpreting remote sensing data to assess environmental changes and inform decision-making.

Geospatial Technology Developer: Graduates may work as geospatial technology developers, designing and implementing software tools and applications for data collection, processing, and visualization. They develop innovative solutions for industries such as GIS, navigation, location-based services, augmented reality, and autonomous vehicles.

Geodetic Surveyor: Geodetic surveyors measure and monitor the Earth's shape, gravity field, and rotation using advanced techniques such as satellite positioning systems and ground-based observatories. They work in geodesy research, geophysical studies, and national mapping projects, contributing to our understanding of Earth's dynamic geospatial reference framework.

Environmental Consultant: Environmental consultants use geospatial data and analysis to assess environmental impacts, conduct site investigations, and develop remediation plans for contaminated sites. They work for consulting firms, government agencies, and industries such as mining, oil and gas, and environmental engineering.

Urban Planner: Urban planners utilize geospatial analysis and mapping tools to design sustainable and resilient cities and communities. They work in municipal governments, regional planning agencies, and consulting firms, developing land use plans, transportation networks, and infrastructure projects to enhance quality of life and promote economic development.

Geomatics Engineer: Graduates may work as geomatics engineers, applying engineering principles to solve geospatial challenges in areas such as navigation, geolocation, and spatial data infrastructure. They design and implement geodetic networks, positioning systems, and geospatial technologies for diverse applications in industry, government, and research.
