Pelajar PSM (2009/10)

Pada sesi 2009/10 seramai enam pelajar telah mengerjakan PSM mereka di bawah bimbingan saya. Ini merupakan jumlah paling ramai pelajar PSM yang saya pernah ada. Mereka adalah;

1. Noor Nadia binti Mohamed Isa "Pelarasan jaringan ukur aras jitu - Kajian kes: Sebahagian Negeri Johor".
2. Muhamad Firdaus bin Hashim "The estimation of height conversion parameter for GPS height transformation".
3. Zakiah binti Abdul Rishah "Analisa ukur deformasi mengguna data total station dan perisian Fredy03".
4. Ahmad Abdullah bin Ahmad Tajuddin "Pemetaan 3D dan visualisasi menggunakan Google Sketchup Pro 6 (Kes Kajian: Sebahagian daripada Kolej Rahman Putra UTM)
5. Mohd Salim bin Haji Yusof "Prosedur dalam pengeluaran hakmilik strata (Kajian kes: Komuniti berpagar di Impian Bukit Tungku, Kuala Lumpur"
6. Mohamad Zamel bin Zulkafle "Perbandingan perisian Topcon Image Master Pro dengan Photomodeler Pro5.0 bagi aplikasi tiga dimensi".

Nadia, Firdaus dan Zakiah menyelesaikan PSM mereka dengan tajuk yang saya cadangkan manakala tiga pelajar lain memang telah ada tajuk mereka sendiri. Bermakna Ahmad, Salim dan Zamel menyiapkanPSM tanpa perlu bimbingan yang sepenuhnya.
