*A new college orientation requirement, completion of the one-credit ACDV 101 course, Transitioning to College, goes into effect spring 2010. If you are a credit student who is new to college in the spring 2010 semester (meaning you have not previously successfully completed college coursework at another institution(s)), you are required to take ACDV 101 during your first semester at CCBC, thereby increasing the number of credits required for the degree to 64-65 credits. PLEASE NOTE: If you are new to college and completed one or more credit courses successfully at CCBC in the fall 2009 semester, you are ENCOURAGED but NOT REQUIRED to take ACDV 101 in the spring 2010 semester.
Program Description
This degree program prepares students for positions with surveying firms, government, and engineering/construction firms as office technicians performing data reduction, basic design, and computer aided drafting.
Students who elect this curriculum and desire to transfer courses to a four-year institution should check with the program coordinator and/or an academic advisor. While many courses will transfer, certain specialized courses may not. Courses may be taken in any sequences as long as prerequisites are met. Some courses may be offered in alternate semesters only.
Students who successfully complete the Surveying Technology Land Surveying A.A.S. Degree will be able to:
-
Using surveying instruments, demonstrate standard techniques to locate and determine three dimensional coordinates of points on the ground;
-
Describe the topographical features of points on the ground and provide three dimensional coordinates for these points with given precisions as determined by Federal, State, and Local accuracies and specifications;
-
Demonstrate how to incorporate positional information into effective written and oral communications;
-
Apply mathematical methods to interpret and refine field data to determine accuracy and precision of field data;
-
Solve problems incurred in conducting field surveys through legal and database searches;
-
Explain proper procedures used in determining three dimensional positions and show how these procedures comply with Federal, State, and Local specifications; and
-
Apply Federal, State, and Local Laws, Standards, and Regulations to guarantee the safe and proper management of Storm Water runoff during construction and land management use within Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
