metrology

the science of measurement

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrology

Do you have any clue as to whether it is specifically connected to construction courses? In that case it could be quantity surveying or building specifications. In the financial sphere it could be cost estimating.

gauges

I know you've already chosen an answer, however looking at course information at schools where this subject is taught such as: http://academy.moe.gov.eg/academy/axis/axis1.html it appears that is a course to become a mechanic. Based on the subjects that are taught, I assume that this term must refer to gauges, and I doubt that it refers to surveying.
