Abstract: We study the geometry of surfaces in $mathbb{R}^4$ with corank $1$ singularities. For such surfaces the singularities are isolated and at each point we define the curvature parabola in the normal space. This curve codifies all the second order information of the surface. Also, using this curve we define asymptotic and binormal directions, the umbilic curvature and study the flat geometry of the surface. It is shown that we can associate to this singular surface a regular one in $mathbb{R}^4$ and relate their geometry.
