Greetings from the Online CyberGIS & Geospatial Data Science Programs at Illinois!

CyberGIS and Geospatial Data Science is a diverse field that can lead to many different career paths.  Here at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign we have launched new distance learning opportunities for students to meet the growing demand in both the private and public sectors for highly valuable skills.  Our programs will provide students with the advanced knowledge and critical skills needed to lead in the field and it’s customized for working professionals.  A student may complete the full master's degree in less than two years without interrupting their career or personal obligations, or they may have flexibility to spread out the courses over a longer period of time as needed.

The M.S. in CyberGIS and Geospatial Data Science is designed to meet the high demand for advanced expertise in areas such as geospatial artificial intelligence, geospatial visualization and visual analytics, data-intensive geospatial computation, geospatial big data processing and analysis in Python and R, as well as fundamentals and principles of cyber-based geographic information science and systems (cyberGIS).

The CyberGIS and Geospatial Data Science graduate-level certificate is a 12-credit program allowing a student to gain more advanced skills in the growing field as well as obtain micro-credentials that can be added to a resume and social media applications.  It also provides an ideal bridge into the 32-credit hour online master’s degree should students desire to continue on for an advanced graduate degree.

Employment options for the CyberGIS & Geospatial Data Science certificate and master’s degree graduates are numerous.  Depending on your area of interest, graduates can choose rewarding careers in government, industry, non-profit organizations, and educational services.  Geography & GIS graduates have successful careers in the public and private sectors, working for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Environmental Protection Agency, and Geological Survey, and at companies such as American Airlines, Esri, Google, IBM, Meta, Microsoft, The Climate Corporation, and many others.

Take a look at the options and opportunities our program has to offer! To learn more or to setup a time to visit with a program advisor, please visit us at https://gis.illinois.edu/
