Career pathways

Your career

As a surveyor, you'll tackle it all: scrutinizing landscapes from above, exploring ocean depths, and subdividing plots of residential land. You'll rub shoulders with architects, engineers, planners, land developers, conveyancers, and solicitors, all working together on noteworthy projects-both local and global.

Every huge infrastructure project relies on surveyors - Adelaide's under and overpasses, The Melbourne Metro Tunnel, NSW's WestConnex project, and the 2032 Brisbane Olympics.

It is a career for someone who likes working in different places every day, working in the environment, in the office, and with technology that ranges from scanners to satellites.
