CDE Copernicus Master in Digital Earth (EMJMD Scholarship)

Overview

Geoinformatics has been established as a methodology-oriented, cross-disciplinary subject based on spatial concepts and approaches. Such ‘spatial view’ competences for a Digital Earth are invaluable within any subject-specific context whilst widely applicable across domains such as planning, resource management, logistics, mobility, marketing, nature and environmental protection, and security. Graduates will be confident in using key interfaces pertinent to spatial information processing.

Graduates will be able to independently plan and manage complex projects and applications in Geoinformatics as well as to cooperate on projects in spatial data infrastructures. The aim is to support and enhance decision-making in all application domains of Copernicus.

The study programme is scientifically based, provides a broad range of academic analysis and research methods, and prepares students for a doctoral degree programme.
