Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Minor

Three Units in GIS and Remote Sensing:

• E&E 133: Geography and GIS (1 Unit)
• E&E 233: Remote Sensing and GIS (1 Unit)
• E&E 333: Advanced GIS (1 Unit)

Two Units Selected From:

• CS 171: Introduction to Computer Science I (1 Unit)
• E&M 200: Economic Statistics (1 Unit)

•  

• MATH 120: College Algebra (1 Unit)

• OR

• MATH 125: Precalculus (1 Unit)

•  

• MATH 141: Calculus of a Single Variable I (1 Unit)

• (or a higher level mathematics course)

• MATH 209: An Introduction to Statistics (1 Unit)
• A pre-approved course with a significant GIS and/or remote sensing component.

Experiential Requirements:

● A pre-approved experience focusing on the application of GIS or remote sensing in the student’s field of study. This could be satisfied by a directed study, a summer research experience, or an internship/work experience.

● Departmental Colloquia: All GIS minors are required to attend departmental colloquia regularly. In these, students who completedresearch projects, service projects, internships or field experiences the previous semester will report on them, and other items of general interest, such as graduate schools and careers, will be discussed.

Note:

● All courses for the minor must be taken for a numerical grade.
