ABSTRACT 
The programs for developement (planning-application) of each 
country,among others,have the need,for their better success, 
for a better possible complete information. 
Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing due to the richness of 
qualitative and metric information which they offer give also 
valuable services to this purpose. 
The fields of activities of a Civil Engineer are of basic 
importance to the development of a country. 
These activities are better realized with the contribution of 
the applications of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing. 
This work refers in principal to this general frame. 
Especially it refers to our experiences from the recent start 
of the course of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing-Geoinfor- 
mation Systems to the Department of Civil Engineers of the 
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. 
Information are given concerning the teaching and researching 
activities and their general connection of the objectives of 
Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing with the objectives of 
Civil Engineer. 
Results are expressed which are favourite and encouraging to 
the effort of the connection of Photogrammetry and Remote 
Sensing to the different Scientific and Technological Fields. 
In this paper we will refer to our experiences related to the 
education, to the subjects of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing 
which have been started to be taught recently (academic year 
1986-87) to the Department of Civil Engineers of Aristotle 
University of Thessaloniki.
