About the course
The expanding use of mobile, spatial, and context-aware technologies, the building of interoperable coordinated information infrastructures and pervasive sensor-networks, the use of location as the foundation for many current and future business and scientific information systems, and the widespread enablement of individuals to gather their own spatial data, report it to others and generate their own spatial resources are changing the way we live and communicate. Degrees offered include the Master of Science in Spatial Information Science and Engineering and PhD in Spatial Information Science and Engineering. These graduate degree programs focus on the design of information systems for the management and analysis of information that has a spatial component. Students are exposed to the latest concepts and technologies and we provide a solid foundation of knowledge and inquiry upon which to build sustainable careers. The Master of Science degree requires at least 24 graduate course credits and 6 thesis credits or a 6-credit graduate project. Students interested in completing the non-thesis program may complete the GRE Waiver Request form and return to graduate coordinator for review and approval.
