Difusion de la Agrimensura como Carrera Universitaria en el Uruguay
Martinez, Magali et al.
In Uruguay, the Surveyor Engineer degree is granted solely by the University of the Republic (public university, hereinafter UdelaR) through the Surveying career, managed by the Surveying Institute (IA) at the Engineering School. In the socio-economic and productive scenario of our country, two important characteristics are seen when analyzing the current situation of Surveyor Engineers: the existence of zero unemployment for professionals in the surveying area and a clear unmet demand for these professionals in the production activities. The low number of students who choose this career is a reality and it has been perceived for several years. Although it is a fact not only in our country, it is worrying at the time to meet the needs of our society.
