Intakes 39, 40 and 41students of the Department of Spatial Sciences conducted a deformation monitoring survey at Victoria Powerhouse, Adhikarigama in the month of March 2025. This project was the essential task to cover the practical of construction survey modules of BSc (Hons) in Surveying Sciences Degree. Students used GNSS, precise levelling, and precise traversing for the deformation monitoring.

BSc (Hons) in Geoinformatics degree program has been started by the Department of Spatial Sciences. Currently, 39 students are following this degree program including day scholars and officer cadets who were enlisted from all streams of Advanced level examination. This program is designed to learn modern Geospatial subjects including GIS, Remote Sensing, GIS programming, and Geomathematics. We believe that BSc (Hons) in Geoinformatics degree program will be a turning point to see the world for students beyond the traditional aspects. Thank You Dean of the Faculty of Built Environment and Spatial sciences and all giving invaluable support to reach these remarkable achievements.
