Abstract
Globalisation, as a process and a condition of the space for higher education, dictates the guidelines for development of study programmes. A special challenge has appeared in the fields depending on the fast developing information technology, including spatial information science, and in the fields of licensed disciplines such as land surveying. Due historical reasons, surveying, geodesy and cartography have been often part of a common academic study programme in the most European countries. The competences of classical surveying, geodetic, and cartographic higher educational programmes have been changing and new areas are developing rapidly. In the article, we focused on competences of the surveying (geodetic) higher education in todays society, where findings of actual international discussions are summarised. Furthermore, the renovation of higher study programmes of surveying in Slovenia is presented (official translation is geodesy), which has been partly influenced by historical facts, and current European and international guidelines in higher education of surveying and geodesy. In this respect, the competences of the new higher educational programmes of surveying (geodesy) in Slovenia are presented.
