Fun fact
Geodesists measure land plots, buildings, and engineering structures, providing the precise data on which real estate registration, infrastructure projects, and urban development depend. Without this work, property ownership cannot be legalized, cities could not expand, and sustainable construction would not be possible.
From the depths of the earth to the vastness of space — this is the only university-level study programme of its kind in Lithuania.
