The structure of this minor goes beyond 'software knowledge' and introduces students to fundamental theories related to spatial thinking and geographic information and provides training in the tools and techniques required to utilize GIS and geospatial technologies in professional settings. In addition, students explore the social and cultural impacts of the increasing use of these technologies in both the public and private sectors.
