UNIGIS Distance Learning

Postgraduate qualifications in Geographical Information Science & Systems are essential for career development and success. UNIGIS is a global network of universities cooperating in the design and delivery of distance learning programs in Geoinformatics. As a founding member of UNIGIS, the University of Salzburg offers two programs to boost the careers of in-service professionals.

While the UNIGIS professional certificate programme is tailored to the needs of GIS practitioners, the UNIGIS Master of Science (CE) program qualifies the graduates as project, team, or department leaders. Both programs provide an understanding of the conceptual, technical, and organisational aspects of GIScience and are offered in Englsih, German and Spanish language.

UNIGIS is the first continuing education programme (“University Program for Further Education”) at a national university in Austria to be successfully accredited by the national accreditation agency, AQ Austria. Graduates join a group of 2700+ alumni who excel as leaders and experts in institutions and companies all over the world.

Starts:

UNIGIS professional: 01 March / 01 October
UNIGIS Master of Science: 01 March / 01 October

Application deadline for both programs: 10 February / 10 September
