地理科学学士-地理信息科学

重点从明显的地理角度着眼于信息科学的理论和实践，重点是原理，方法和技术。学生熟悉如何在各种应用程序域中生成，管理和评估有关流程，关系和模式的信息。该计划面向对使用现代GIS科学，遥感，计算机科学和统计方法进行映射，可视化和问题解决的分析方法感兴趣的学生。
This emphasis focuses on the various methods used by geographers to represent and analyze geographic information about the natural and social world. These methods include cartography, geographic information systems, remote sensing, spatial statistics and qualitative analysis. Students in this emphasis will learn how to apply skills and use contemporary technologies to solve problems and conduct research. Students interested in the development of new geographic methods may consider the Bachelor of Science degree in geographic information science and technology, which requires additional courses in computer science.<br><br>A degree in Geography (Environment, Society, and Technology) provides you with the education and skills to pursue a wide range of career options. Our students work in diverse fields such as fire ecology, remote sensing, GIS, watershed management, wildlife habitat, energy planning, food security, marketing, and social justice. Whether we utilize advanced geospatial technologies or work on the ground to understand and help communities, geographers strive to solve pressing societal and environmental problems.
