GIS
Geographic information systems
GIS in education provides you an expert skill and a competitive advantage on the job market. As an academic subject, GIS can be easily combined with other disciplines.
Analyzing geographic problems
While studying GIS students learn to analyze geographic problems, which can be put into practice and visualized through maps, text and graphics on the web and in print references. GIS can be used as a scientific method, as well as the support and practical application of a theory.
