GIS Education Weekly: 2+2 in Geography at SIUE, Sins of Data Visualization, Playground Maps

Programs, Degrees and Courses

"Southern Illinois University Edwardsville continues to expand its 2+2 Partnership Programs with the establishment of its first such agreement with Lincoln Land Community College, in geography." That's per a press release in the local paper. What does it mean? The 2+2 program allows "students to follow a very specific curriculum while attending their first two years at the community college, then transfer into their intended major at SIUE."

Per Nick Santos at UC Davis: "Well, apparently the GIS Capstone Course [for the Coursera GIS specialization] is now live! I believe if you enrolled, you should have received an email." The course appears to have opened Oct 24.

Upcoming GeoTech Center Webinars

Coming May 20: Integrating a Degree Qualifications Profile within a Geo-related Program Webinar

Does "Degree Qualification Profile" give you pause? I Googled it since it's a new term to me.

There's a new, free webinar each third Wednesday of the month.

The old GeoTech Center Geospatial Careers Pathways Guide document (2009?) just resurfaced on Facebook (pdf), but a new one is expected on the GeoTech Center website soon. It's not a document of which I was aware.
