GIS相关系所:地理与环境系
南安普顿大学的地理与环境学院历史悠久,是英国地理和环境科学研究顶级中心之一。研究生课程设置应用地理信息系统与遥感专业,是英国少数研究生课程中侧重于遥感应用以及与环境研究相结合的大学院校。
地理与环境科学学院的研究立足于解决当今一些主要的全球挑战,包括气候变化,社会和健康不平等,可持续发展;保护生物多样性;贫穷和衰退。
主要分为以下研究小组:地球表面动力学(ESD);环境科学中心 ; 经济,社会与治理;GeoData (进行应用环境研究);全球环境变化和地球观测(GECEO);南安普敦大学(PLUS)的古环境实验室;人口,健康与福祉(PHeW)
英国的研究生项目主要多为授课制项目,南安普顿的应用GIS&RS项目的学制为一年三个学期,第三个学期用于完成毕业论文。
该项目提供较多的选修模块,从python开发、遥感、卫生健康到环境应用。每年会改进和新增不同的选修以满足研究生的研究兴趣点。申请一般会卡80均分左右的GPA,会要求地理学、物理学、地理信息学、环境科学、生态学、生物学、地质学和社科背景。如果有相关工作经验,学校会降低均分要求。

Applied Geographical Information Systems and Remote Sensing
应用地理信息系统与遥感

本专业旨在利用地理数据解决应用地理信息系统和遥感硕士学位上的现实问题。
在这个硕士课程中,将使用最新技术并开发关键的编程和分析技术,学习从环境咨询到政府研究等各种职业中工作的技能。
获得分析卫星和雷达等遥感技术的地理空间数据的知识和实践技能,能够使用这些数据创建地理信息系统(GIS)。
全职学习,时间为一年。
前8个月专注于课程的教学部分;第二学期开始为期末项目做准备。
一年的学费为£28,900。
