This Masters in Geoinformation Technology & Cartography focuses on understanding and managing the locational data required to use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) together with visualisation and map production in a GIS environment. It is the only programme in the UK to have a significant emphasis on cartography; and our focus on the underpinning geomatics aspects and cartographic output is unique among GIS programmes.
You can exit after 9-32 months with PgCert Geoinformation Technology and Cartography.
You can exit after 21-44 months with PgDip Geoinformation Technology and Cartography.
An Honours degree in a relevant field such as geography, earth or environmental science, planning, mathematics, or civil engineering, but other subjects will be considered. The programme requires some basic mathematical competence and a pass at Scottish Higher or equivalent in Maths is recommended. Significant use is made of computers and IT, but there is no specific entry requirement.
