专业概况

Program Description

The geographic information science program provides students with high-quality training in a cutting-edge field combining geography, information science, statistics, remote sensing and environmental studies. The wide diversity of faculty expertise in the program enables students to pursue their own research interests by applying geospatial technologies (e.g. GIS, spatial statistics, cartography, unmanned aerial systems remote sensing) to surface hydrology, atmospheric processes, cultural and natural resource management, demography, historical change, location analysis, transportation/land use planning, and regional economics. Program graduates are highly competitive in the job market and most past graduates have obtained high-quality jobs upon graduation or continued on to pursue a doctorate.

Research Opportunities and Assistantships

The program provides research assistantships and teaching assistantships for qualified students. Most of the graduate students in the program receive support as a teaching or research assistant. All graduate students are encouraged to present at state and national meetings and publish their research in peer review journals. The department has a variety of equipment and software to support research including survey-grade GPS, environmental data loggers with GPS, Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, UAVs for mapping and remote sensing, specialized GIS and remote sensing software (e.g. ArcGIS and e-cognition) and workstation and servers for computation of large datasets.
