The objective of the minor in Surveying Engineering Technology is to provide majors in a related discipline with the necessary knowledge for licensure as a land surveyor in Maine. As an example, an engineer could perform design, boundary survey, and construction survey in a development. A forester could survey a wood lot’s boundary lines as part of a forestry function. A minor in Surveying Engineering Technology requires at least 18 credit hours in surveying program courses. The courses must include three credits of plane/basic surveying, three credits in advanced or construction surveying, and three credits in boundary law. The remaining courses must come from surveying, engineering, engineering technology, technical, legal , or ethical courses approved as program electives in the Surveying Engineering Technology curriculum. Approval of a Surveying Engineering Technology minor course of study by a surveying engineering technology faculty is required.
