UNB Pioneer Graduands (BScE and MScE)

It seems that surveying department at UNB has pioneer graduates in about the same period with those in UNSW. The first batch BScE from UNB graduated in 1962. There were four candidates graduated with BScE (three from Canada and one from USA). In 1963 another six graduates with BScE and one with MScE (the first postgraduate degree from UNB).

The first MScE graduand was Eugene Derenyi with thesis entitled “Deflections of the Vertical in Central New Brunswick.” In 1965 another two MScE candidate were graduated – Emenike from Nigeria and Wolfgang Faig from New Brunswick. Emenike’s thesis entitled “Analysis of Stereotemplet Triangulation Error” while Faig wrote on “Photogrammetry Applied to Arctic Glacier Surveys”

The first MSc degree of UNB Surveying Dept was awarded in 1963 while the first PhD degree in 1970.

Derenyi was the second PhD graduand with the first awarded to Ahmed F A E-K [Fouad Abd El-Kader] whom wrote a thesis entitled “New laser instruments and new methods for mine orientation surveys”. There were three PhD recipients from UNB in 1970. The third graduand was Fubara DJM (b.1938) [Dagogo Micheal Jim] (of Nigeria) whom wrote a thesis on “Three-dimensional geodesy applied to terrestrial geodetic network”.

German National Report on the Geodetic Activities

Jerman merupakan negara yang aktif melaporkan perkembangan geodetik yang berjalan di sana. Laporan tersebut dikumpulkan oleh Deutsche Geodastiche Kommisson yang kemudiannya menyalurkan ke badan antarabangsa seperti IUGG dan IAG. Lebih menariknya laporan yang disediakan itu boleh dikongsi bersama secara percuma. Sesiapa saja yang berminat boleh memohon salinan report melalui emel dan mereka akan menerima dokumen tersebut melalui pos.
