Abstract : It is well-known that a null 2-type surface in 3-dimensional Euclidean space $ E^3$ is an open portion of circular cylinder. In this article we prove that a surface with 2-type and 1-type Gauss map in $E^3$ is in fact of null 2-type and thus it is an open portion of circular cylinder.
Keywords : submanifolds of finite type, finite type Gauss map, principal directions
