Full-time form

Successful mastery of the topics in cartography and topography covered in the geography curriculum for grades 6–11, and completion of the high school computer science course for grades 10–11.

The ability to work with GIS is an important component of professional competence. Geography, geographic information, and computer science have proven to be essential for solving many practical tasks and contemporary problems. This course is designed to cover the fundamentals of geoinformatics in the first semester of the first year and includes lectures and laboratory sessions conducted in a computer lab. The course syllabus consists of two content modules: 1. Fundamentals of Geoinformatics. 2. Data Sources and Information Organization in GIS. The form of assessment for the course is a credit exam.
