10 courses with the subject SMT, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
Principles of Surveying Provides a study of field and office procedures for measuring distances, elevations, and horizontal and vertical angles.
