At December graduation, NC State is awarding five doctorates, 12 professional master’s (MGIST) degrees and 21 graduate certificates to members of the Center for Geospatial Analytics community. Congratulations to all of our students on their success!
Doctorate
Our Geospatial Analytics Ph.D. program unites departments across the university to train a new generation of interdisciplinary data scientists skilled in developing novel understanding of spatial phenomena and applying new knowledge to grand challenges.
Dissertation: Computationally Efficient Approaches to Modeling Flood Risk and River Discharge at Scale
Dissertation: Does Chilling Explain the Divergent Response of Spring Phenology to Urban Heat Islands?
Dissertation: Assessing Spatio-Temporal Variability in Watershed Nutrient Loadings Using Statistical-Mechanistic Modeling
Dissertation: Estimating and Forecasting the Spatio-Temporal Hypoxia Dynamics in Northern Gulf of Mexico
Dissertation: Advancing Near Real-Time Deforestation Monitoring via Multi-Source Remote Sensing Data, Landscape Processes and End-User Contributions
Master of Geospatial Information Science and Technology
Our MGIST program equips students with the knowledge and tools to become geospatial professionals through a unique curriculum that leverages NC State’s strengths in computational and data sciences and interdisciplinary training, in combination with professional skills development. The degree was designed to be completed entirely online, allowing flexibility for both students just entering the work force and those already established. Learn more about this semester’s service-learning capstone projects.
And congratulations to our MGIST poster competition winner, Kim Garrett!
Graduate Certificate in Geospatial Information Science
Our graduate certificate provides students with a graduate level academic credential in advanced GIS applications. This program is designed for students who wish to establish themselves in GIS practice, enhance current skill sets or are not yet ready to commit to a full graduate program. The certificate can be completed entirely online and is also available to current NC State students enrolled in a non-GIS graduate degree.
