Geomatics encompasses the logic, art, science and technology involved in collecting, managing, and communicating geographically-referenced information in its many forms.
Geomatics encompasses the logic, art, science and technology involved in collecting, managing, and communicating geographically-referenced information in its many forms. It is concerned with the accurate measurement, representation, storage, query, retrieval, analysis, mapping, and presentation of geographic data and information.
The Geomatics Certificate combines the study and immersion within the major developments experienced in geographical information science, geographic information systems, remote sensing, photogrammetry, and global positioning systems by linking theories and science to experiences that intersect hardware, software, equipment, algorithms, and techniques.
The certificate provides students with hands-on training in:
Spatial analysis applications
Topographical surveying
Geospatial database development
Cartographic communication
Project planning and management
Key learning outcomes for all students:
Experience applying a range of spatial analysis techniques
Proficiency with quantitative methods
Hone abilities at the presentation of spatial data in cartographic and other forms
Proficiency with GIS and remote sensing computing environments
In the Faculty of Environmental & Urban Change, our approach is to focus on the development and application of geomatics in environmental, physical, and social sciences. We provide broad exposure to human and physical applications and emphasize connections where they intersect.
In an increasingly globalized world, the ability to speak more than one language is a highly valued commodity. In addition, the study of structure, history, and development of language helps to create strong communicators with the skills to work in a multitude of professions.
The Department of Languages, Literatures & Linguistics gives you the opportunity to study an additional language, while learning about the culture and science behind human language.
Languages & Literatures
Experience the rich variety of language, culture and literatures courses offered at the Department of Languages, Literatures and Linguistics. Learn a new language, experience a new culture and enrich your imagination with DLLL's degree-granting programs.
Geographic Information Systems (GIS), a popular and affordable technology, are used to automate the gathering, storage, analysis and communication of geospatial data in a variety of contexts, and used for many specialized purposes by corporations and governments.
Geographic information science (GIS) is a relatively new field that uses computer technology to link maps to digital data. Resource managers and urban planners rely on the expertise of GIS technicians
The Advanced Diploma in GIS Applications provides skills training in geographic information systems (GIS) to university and college graduates who wish to strengthen their employment opportunities in GIS applications – an area that is in high demand around the world.
Learn the basics of GIS systems, create maps and edit and manage GIS data. Learning project management, students have the opportunity to work on various projects, showcasing data collection
