The Geomatics Engineering department has been active since 1967, when it separated from the department of general engineering disciplines under the name “Engineering Geodesy”. It was renamed “Geodesy and Land Cadastre” in 1996 and “Geodesy” in 2000; in 2018 it split into “Geodesy and Cartography” and “Building and Structures Cadastre”, and in 2023 the two were merged again as “Geomatics Engineering”.
Today the department is Uzbekistan's leading centre for training specialists in Geomatics Engineering, Cadastre and Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre (construction). Its graduates work at the Cadastre Agency, the Republican Aerogeodesy Centre, the O‘zDAVYERLOYIHA institute and leading design organisations. The department also runs doctoral (PhD) programmes in Geodesy and Cartography, Geoinformatics, and Land Management, Cadastre and Land Monitoring.
The department counts 31 teaching staff and 2 support staff: one Doctor of Science and professor, ten candidates of science and associate professors, ten senior lecturers, seven lecturers and three trainee lecturers. Its staff have published more than 20 textbooks, some 40 study guides, 10 monographs and over 5,000 scientific articles; more than 1,000 bachelor's graduates, over 100 master's graduates and more than ten holders of doctoral degrees have been trained here.
