Nauki o Informacji Geograficznej

The Department of Geographic Information Science is developed from a research office which was set up in 2001. In 2006, the Department of Geographic Information Engineering was established, which was renamed the Department of Geographic Information Science in 2012. Accordingly, we established the undergraduate programs of Geographic Information System, Geographic Information Science, and Geospatial Information Engineering in 2000, 2012, and 2019, respectively.

In the Department of Geographic Information Science, there are 18 full-time faculty members, including 7 professors, 7 associate professors, and 4 lecturers, all of whom hold Ph.D. degrees. Among the faculty members, there is one Beijing Famous Teacher, one Provincial- and Ministerial-level Science and Technology Leading Talent, and one Science and Technology Innovation Talent.

More than 20 monographs and textbooks have been published by our faculty members, including one Beijing Excellent Textbook. We also have one National Teaching Platform. Supported by the research platform featured with urban refined management and intelligent perception, digital architectural heritage, traffic big data, and 3D geographic information system, the Department of Geographic Information Science has undertaken more than 30 national, provincial and ministerial scientific research projects, and won more than 10 provincial and ministerial awards in the last five years.

The undergraduate and graduate students in the Department have won nearly 20 national, provincial and ministerial awards. Around 1,000 students have been serving in the field of geographic information science/engineering as well as smart city management since graduation.

As the one and only architectural university in Beijing, the Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture (BUCEA) was formerly known as Capital Primary Industrial School established by the Qing Dynasty Government in 1907. Jointly sponsored by the People’s Government of Beijing Municipality and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of China, BUCEA is home to over 70,000 outstanding alumni.

As a multi-campus university, BUCEA now has two campuses - Xicheng and Daxing. With over 1100 faculty and staff and more than 11000 enrolled students, BUCEA offers 39 undergraduate programs, 14 master’s degree programs, and 2 doctoral degree programs.

BUCEA has 10 schools, 1 basic teaching institution, as well as School of International Education, School of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education and School of Continuing Education, with faculties in Architecture, Civil Engineering, Environment, Surveying and Mapping, Electrics, Mechanics, Management, Law, and Science, etc.
