GIS in Higher Education

GIS and spatial thinking can improve every aspect of the higher education enterprise—teaching, learning, research, service, and academic administration.

Leading universities and polytechnics prepare students for meaningful careers in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and academia while advancing our understanding of global systems and societies through GIS education.

These institutions also use GIS to provide great learning environments and improve operations.
