Includes all GE requirements and Surveying and Mapping Foundation Core requirements towards the BS degree. Does NOT meet State of Utah educational requirements for Surveying licensure.

Meets State of Utah minimum educational requirements for licensure as a Professional Land Surveyor (PLS) by completing an AAS degree in Surveying (see R156-22-302c1). This is a terminal degree which means it does not transfer well into the BS degree in Surveying and Mapping but is intended to stand-alone. All courses in this degree, with the exception of a few, are offered in the evenings and via remote access to the classroom during regularly scheduled day-time courses. It is not a purely online program.
