Diploma Course for Survey Department Laboratory Technicians

About this course

This diploma is ISM's technician-level programme, listed at SLQF Level 4. The page is headed only "Diploma Course", so this listing names it after its stated purpose. According to ISM it trains the Survey Department's laboratory technicians in cartographic, remote sensing, photogrammetric, aerial photography and lithography laboratory work. The programme is organised into four quarters. The early quarters introduce English, mathematics, physics, elementary surveying, cartography, remote sensing, photogrammetry and departmental orders. Later quarters add computer science, GIS, land information systems, lithography, typography, processgraphy, air navigation and a mini project. The page states a 60-credit programme, but the quarter totals printed do not add up to that figure, and the length of each quarter is not stated. The learning outcomes and graduate profile are placeholders. Use the entry requirements below and ask ISM about duration, fees and the next intake.
