SHEFFIELD UNIVERSITY, Dept.of Geography 
Air photo interpretation forms a quite substantial part of the teaching. 
(186, 187) 
SOU THAMPTON UNIVERSITY. Civil Engineering Department 
The extent to which photogrammetry is taught is limited. However this is 
taken a little further with M Sc transportation engineering students and M Sc 
irrigation engineering students who usually receive a concentrated course of one 
or two weeks duration given by personnel of the Directorate of Overseas 
Surveys, or the Silsoe Agricultural College. 
SURREY UNIVERSITY, Dept.of Civil Engineering 
Photogrammetry is included in the undergraduate civil engineering degree 
course in its second and final years. The subject is also included in the 
postgraduate M Sc highway engineering course. The department possesses a 
Thompson Watts plotter and other photogrammetric equipment. 
| SURVEY TRAINING LTD 
This company is an associate of Cartographical Services (Southampton) Ltd 
which undertakes air surveys, and of Cartographic Engineering Ltd., which is 
involved in the manufacture of the new CPI (Thompson) plotter. Survey Training 
Ltd has been set up with an experienced qualified staff to provide survey 
courses for both the trainee and qualified surveyors. The courses are mainly 
of two weeks duration and give practical instruction in the use and understanding 
of new equipment and techniques. 
* SWANSEA UNIVERSITY COLLEGE.Dept.of Geography 
Photogrammetry is taught to second-year students reading geography, 
either as a single honours subject or in a two subject joint honours scheme, who 
have elected to take the course in topographic science. There are usually 5 or 6 
students in the group. Teaching time is 10 hours per week and this is more or 
less evenly divided between surveying, photogrammetry and cartography. 
Photogrammetry is also taught to third-year students reading geography, either 
as a single honours subject or in a two year joint honours scheme, who have 
elected to take either surveying or cartography as their optional subject. There 
are usually 3 or 4 students in these courses. Teaching time is 10 hours per 
week. In the cartography option photogrammetry represents about 1/4 of the 
syllabus and in the surveying option it is rather less. Geography students have 
to produce an honours dissertation in their final (third) year. Those students 
firmly committed to these combinations of subjects frequently undertake some 
project which involves some photogrammetric plotting on PG2 or A6 plotting 
machines. 
Post-graduate students taking the diploma in cartography usually number 
one or two in any year. Photogrammetry represents about 1/4 of their total 
syllabus. These students have to undertake project work, though this is 
seldom in photogrammetry.
