This programme aims to develop a high level understanding of quantitative and computational geographical methods. This includes skills in GIS software and statistical programming languages, such as R or Python. Within an applied setting, emphasis is placed on developing skills in the visualisation, modelling and statistical analysis of conventional and novel sources of data, ranging from censuses and social surveys through to satellite imagery and social media using both web-based and traditional techniques. This degree recognises that the traditional market for GIS has evolved, and that students require a broader suite of more advanced computational, quantitative and data manipulation skills for them to remain competitive in the global jobs market.
