GIS Specialist Courses

The Bachelor of Science (Geographical Science) examines spatial dynamics in landscapes, encompassing atmospheric patterns, vegetation changes, and human-driven activities. Combining physical and social sciences, it addresses environmental challenges across varying scales. Students explore Earth's diverse environments across time, learning to interpret and manage landscapes. This course touches on climatology, hydrology, soil science, and urban geography, emphasizing sustainable practices. It also equips students with skills in handling numerical and spatial data, incorporating geographical information systems.

The Bachelor of Science (Geology) offers a comprehensive exploration of Earth's history and its internal dynamics. This course sheds light on Earth's formation, the emergence of life, and the creation and storage of mineral and energy resources. Through understanding plate tectonics, surface activities, and the progression of life, students gain insights into potential climate shifts, seismic risks, and undiscovered energy sources. Graduates are adeptly prepared for roles in the sustainable management of Earth's mineral and energy reserves.

The Bachelor of Science (Geoscience) delves into the construction and interpretation of conceptual models, emphasizing their vital role in pinpointing natural resources and alleviating the impact of natural hazards. Through this study, students gain a deeper understanding of Earth's processes and their implications, equipping them with the knowledge to make informed decisions in areas of resource identification and hazard management, while fostering a holistic understanding of our planet's complexities.
