Minor in Geographic Information Systems

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is any system that allows an analyst to manipulate, explore, and display spatial or geographical data. It is widely used in both operations and research.  The minor will be valuable to any degree program that requires spatial data to be digitally analyzed, manipulated, and overlaid on maps using ArcGIS software.

Some majors may not be eligible to pair with this minor. See the Minor Restrictions list for details.
