Geo-information Science and Earth Observation
Master
We live in a geo-enabled world where geographic information and earth observation data are essential. These data drive decision-making, help monitor our environment and resources, track species occurrences, assess ecosystems, and map health risks, land use, and environmental changes over time. As our planet transforms, understanding where and how these changes occur—and their impact—is critical.
This Master’s programme equips you with the geospatial skills needed to tackle today’s global challenges with local solutions. You will learn to harness geographic and earth observation data, spatial data science, and geospatial technologies to analyse complex problems and create sustainable, data-driven solutions. Gain theoretical expertise, develop technical skills, and build data competencies to make a real-world impact.
