Description:

The field of Geoinformatics is expanding rapidly as more industries are employing spatial data to manage their activities. It has great potential in environmental modelling and its analysis, studying climate change, disaster management and telecommunications, urban or rural planning, land use management, agriculture, defense sector and infrastructure development among others. There are various professional positions of GIS at different levels such as GIS Mapping Technician, GIS Data Specialist, GIS Application Specialist, GIS Business Analyst, GIS Operator, GIS Consultant, Geospatial Software Engineer, GIS Programmer, GIS Technical Assistant, etc.

The area of Geoinformatics will provide many opportunities to those having a background knowledge of Geography, Geology, Climatology, Meteorology, Urban Planning, Natural Resource Management, Environmental Science and Water Resource Management at Graduate level. Keeping this in mind, the six-month Post Graduate Certificate Programme in Geoinformatics is developed for the students who are graduate in earth Sciences (Geography, Geology, Environment, Disaster Management) or B.Sc., Computer Science, Engineering who wish to build their career in geospatial industry and want to be proficient in applying geo-information science in their respective field. This programme is also applicable for Social Science and Humanities researchers when geospatial data is a part of their study.
