Educational Resources

Land surveying brings geography, math and science alive.  Reinforce curriculum concepts with surveying through a visit to the MSPS Institute or have a speaker come to you.

Library

The MSPS Institute has over 1,000 books, pamphlets, and trade catalogues about the history, practice and instruments used for surveying. 

 

Field Trips

Enjoy a guided tour of the museum, a surveying scavenger hunt, and map exercises or contact us for a customized tour that reinforces specific classroom goals.

 

Classroom Visits

An Institute staff member will visit your classroom with historic and modern surveying equipment, measuring exercises, and map projects customized for your school district.  Classroom visits can be designed to suite your lesson plan.  Contact us for details.

 

Scouts

Learn map skills or meet science and engineering badge requirements at the Michigan Museum of Surveying.  Each program lasts approximately an hour and a half.  We look forward to working with troop leaders to customize visits to reinforce or compliment ongoing troop activities.
