On this course, you'll:
- Get hands-on experience of using Geographical Information (GI) instruments and emerging technologies, including GPS, Total Stations and 3D laser scanners
- Learn from experts with extensive industrial and consultancy experience and strong research portfolios
- Practise your GIS data collection skills, both in our GIS labs and in the field
- Learn image processing and spatial analysis techniques
- Complete a research report on the GIS topic of your choice, applying the principles of research and design
Careers and opportunities
GIS has become an essential part of the world's information infrastructure and the technology is now widely used in utility companies, telecommunications networks, civil engineering, retailing, local and national government, international charities, NGOs, the National Health Service, environmental organisations, banking and finance, and insurance.
What can you do with a Geographical Information Systems degree?
