Courses Programs and Degrees
 |
| Bay College has a new GIS Program. |
"Starting Sept. 2, everyone is invited to join the 'geospatial revolution' by taking GIS 201 Introduction to Geographic Information Systems on Friday mornings from 9 a.m. to noon at Bay College West Campus in Iron Mountain. Students will learn about satellites, gps receivers, mapping, geospatial data, and spatial analysis work." That's the news in
the local paper. The
school teaches GIS using QGIS and ArcGIS.
Last week I noted that Eastern Kentucky University may lose its geography degree. This week
I note a new(ish?) geography degree at Rowan University in New Jersey. Other new majors include biomedical studies and community health advocacy. I'm pretty sure these two were not majors when my parents or I graduated from college!
