Geographic Information Science Graduate Certificate

Overview

The Geographic Information Science (GISci) Certificate is designed to provide students with proficiency in the application of spatial thinking, geographic information science, and geospatial technologies.

Eligibility

Students who already hold a bachelor's degree from CU Denver or other institutions in any major may be admitted as a CU Denver graduate student or a non-degree-seeking student.

Program Expectations

To earn the certificate, students must complete a specific set of geospatial classes and earn a 3.0 GPA average with no course below a "B-".

Certificate Requirements

• Students must complete a minimum of 18 credit hours.
• Students must complete a minimum of 18 graduate (5000-level) or higher credit hours.
• Students must earn a minimum grade of B- (2.7) in all courses applied to the certificate and must achieve a minimum cumulative certificate GPA of 3.0.

Certificate Restrictions, Allowances and Recommendations

• It is assumed that graduate students have some prior knowledge in basic mapping skills.
• The statistics course requirement can be filled by enrolling in the GEOG 5050 Applied Spatial Statistics or one of several graduate level (5000 or above) classes offered by CU Denver and approved by the certificate coordinator.
• If you are currently a graduate student at CU Denver and also attended CU Denver as an undergraduate, you may apply only one three credit hour undergraduate course (4000 level) to the GISci Certificate.
