Course content

The dual masters degree with Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) allows students to obtain both a University of Glasgow degree and a UGM degree simultaneously. Computational Geoscience explores how we model the natural world and the environment around us (and the processes that create them). You will develop applied data science and modelling skills which you can use to address complex real-world challenges and support decision-making in geoscience fields. You will develop skills that are in high-demand in the geoscience sector, including computer programming, predictive modelling and big data analysis.

Why this programme

• This programme is one of very few in the UK to focus on computational modelling in geosciences and is unique to Scotland.

• The programme is highly-applied and has been developed in consultation with industry to ensure our graduates are equipped with the knowledge and skills to meet global demands for professionals in this field.

• Geomatic Engineering is the science and art of location. Geomatics (geo-referenced informatics) deals with spatial information or locational information as a primary factor.

• This discipline serves activities involving geospatial information such as land administration and management, administrative boundary, land and property taxation, spatial planning, smart city and geospatial modelling, engineering survey, geodynamics, deformation analysis, 3D heritage modelling, and environment.

• The Geomatics Engineering program offers five concentrations: Survey and Mapping, Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, Geodetic Laboratory. Hydrographic Laboratory, Geoinfomatic and Geospatial Information Infrastructure.
