Lectures and Time-table of Lectures
Evening Lectures
Vacation Work
An undergraduate study camp, of three weeks' duration, followed by drawing and calculations in Drawing Orcen, may be arranged during the summer at a place selected by the Head of the Surveying Department to enable students to match the experiential requirements of holidays. . Students from other recognized Universities and Technical Colleges may be admitted by the Head of the Department.
University Library
Students are reminded that they should use a considerable part of their summer and spring vacations for reading. In the second term of the second year, a meeting of prospective members is called to elect a scouting committee, which is responsible to the Head of Department for details of arrangements.
Examinations
An Annual Exam schedule will be available in the Registrar's Office a few weeks before the exam. Applications for special examination with medical evidence must be submitted before the start of the annual examination period.
Graduation
Exam numbers of candidates who present themselves at the university are available from the student administration on and after the Monday before the start of the exam and must be requested by the candidates in person. In addition, any student from any faculty who fails the examinations may be reported to the Board of Professors and may be excluded from the course or courses that the Board of Professors shall determine, or restricted in any year to subjects specified by the Faculty.
Discipline
Any student excluded from a course or courses or from a subject or subjects under Article 7 may apply for admission to such course or subject. If the Board of Professors is satisfied that the condition or circumstances of such student have changed to such an extent that there is a reasonable chance that he will do so.
Student Guidance Student Counsellor
Overseas Students
Appointments Board
All men and women currently registered and available for work will be notified of suitable vacancies that come to the attention of the Board. They also receive a copy of the Nomination Report each year, which includes current information on employment trends, graduate opportunities and current salary rates.
The Union
Students in their final year are advised to register with the Council early in the year and to call occasionally during the year to keep themselves abreast of current employment trends. The Council's responsibility to graduates continues throughout their working lives; and there are very few graduates whom the Appointments Board is not in a position to assist at some stage during their working life.
