Surveying, Certificate

USA

What will I learn?

The Certificate in Surveying is designed to help professionals with any bachelor’s degree meet the academic requirements for Professional Surveyor licensure, as approved by the Ohio Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Surveyors. Professional surveyors play a key role in land development and ensuring the accuracy of land divisions and property boundaries. This program supports the State’s goal to expand the pool of candidates eligible to serve as Ohio’s elected county engineers, a role that requires dual licensure as both a professional engineer and professional surveyor.
