About this programme
Spatial and temporal aspects are at the heart of many pressing societal problems (e.g. achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals), and there is a lack of experts capable of dealing with them properly. The overall aim of the International Master's Programme in Geospatial Technologies is thus to prepare students to exploit new geospatial technologies to support environmental and societal decision-making affecting the future of our planet. The University of Münster (UM), Germany, the Universitat Jaume I (UJI), Spain, and the Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL), Portugal, are complementary institutions with expertise in key research areas and teaching in the field of geospatial technologies. Consequently, the programme can cover interdisciplinary and current topic areas such as informatics, data analytics, remote sensing, spatial statistics and Geographic Information (GI) Science while also providing students with the opportunity to apply these to relevant problems in practical (team) projects. The partners have been cooperating in several international projects for more than 15 years, including in a previous EMJM as well as in a European PhD programme (International Training Network) on Smart Open Cities. This expertise in running international training programmes, the composition of the consortium, and the tightly integrated structure of the degree programme, ensure that the course content is up-to-date, teaching is delivered to a high standard and essential transferable ski
