SPATIAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT is a graduate program at the Department of Geoinformation offering a degree of Master of Science in GIS. The program is organized in a core curriculum providing students with a comprehensive knowledge in advanced concepts and applications of GIS, Spatial Data Management and Optimization Methods. After the first semester student select either a more technological, IT-related focus or a mainly business- technology management oriented specialization.

The technological, IT-related focus of the SPATIAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT master program is “GIS and Decision Support”.
Knowledge of spatial information, mathematical methods for
simulation and advanced optimization processes are combined to design and improve models for
complex “what if…” scenarios. These models provide decision makers with valuable insight and
alternative perspectives enabling them to determine preventive actions or make comprehensive
investment decisions.
“Spatial Technology Management and Entrepreneurship” is the second key area of this master
