Graduate Certificate in Geographic Information Systems (Co-op)

Program Overview

The one-year Geographic Information Systems Ontario College Graduate Certificate program provides you with knowledge and skills relating to geographic and cartographic science, with a focal point on information systems technology.

In this program, you use both hands-on and theoretical approaches to explore topics such as:

  • Field data collection
  • Programming
  • Remote sensing
  • Enterprise geo-database design and management
  • Cloud-based services
  • Application development
  • 2D and 3D cartographic design
  • Spatial analysis and project management

A key part of this program is the independent project that you begin in your first semester and complete throughout your studies. You identify an area of interest, develop a project proposal, and then implement and complete your project, all in collaboration with an industry or government sponsor.
Students also have the option to gain real-world experience through a paid co-operative education (co-op) work term. Please note that places in the co-op work term are subject to availability and academic eligibility. Please note admission to the co-op program does not guarantee a co-op placement.
