The activity of the terrestrial measurement and cadastre engineer in the field of Geodesy consists mainly in performing works of surveying, tracing or topographic tracking. Also, we could say that the activity of technical cadastre, of recording or application, has a significant topographic content. This paper analyses the weight of topography in the training curricula of the mentioned specialists, with its components, spread, as you will see, over all four years of university education. Also, the paper presents the content of the courses, in order to reveal how we conceive the didactic presentation (the didactic methods used will be also presented), in the end resulting the whole range of studied problems. The development of the total topographic station obviously simplifies the work of the topographer, the stations being more and more efficient, so that the role of the topographer will soon resume to carrying around the prism; and thus the paper discusses this very aspect: given the circumstances, to what extent is the classic study of topography necessary? The authors support maintaining education in its current, complete format, considering that the complete training of field specialists cannot be reduced to using a device, even a very efficient one, without knowing the essence of the profession.
