Cloud computing, big data, and Internet of Things (IoT) have dramatically impacted use of geospatial data. The GIS+CS degree at UNT addresses these needs by producing graduates who understand the complexities of geospatial data and are able to leverage computing techniques to convert such data into meaningful information.
Why Earn a Geographic Information Systems and Computer Science Degree?
A Bachelor of Science degree in Geographic Information Systems and Computer Science (GIS+CS) enables understanding of geospatial processes as well as process-based/algorithmic approaches to problem solving.
The changing nature of geospatial data (e.g. location-based data) and associated analytical methods (e.g. machine learning) requires professionals who can blend these two approaches – i.e. develop processes and algorithms while understanding the larger context within which they occur.
The GIS+CS degree provides this blend but also offers two tracks – Computer Science (CS) or Information Technology (IT). The CS Track focuses on machine learning and artificial intelligence. The IT Track focuses on construction, maintenance and management of computational infrastructure and IT project management.

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.
It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.
A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):
