This program will provide certification for students who demonstrate proficiency in Geographic Information Systems (GIS).  It is made up of five classes.  In these classes, students gain knowledge about GIS and the diverse workplace applications for these systems. They examine the range of information sources that combine to build a GIS database, including raw data, scanned maps, GPS positions, satellite imagery, and aerial photography (including drones). They learn how GIS today supports research and decision-making in a wide variety of fields, including land use planning, environmental science, environmental justice, business intelligence, disaster planning and many others
