Description:
Geographical Information Science (GIS) is a growing, diverse field which uses digital technology to help people work with geographic information. GIS technology majors learn to use software and other tools to gather, assemble, and present detailed geographic data in maps and other forms. Graduates will also gain knowledge of how to design a geo-database to store, query, and manipulate geographic information and spatial data. This degree allows students to combine their computer science skills with various science disciplines.
