Required course in the GIS & Geospatial Technology Certificate program.
Students can choose to take GEOG XL 7 in one of two formats: self-paced or cohort-based. This is the self-paced version of the course.
Students enrolled in the self-paced version will have two quarters from the course's scheduled start date (NOT from date of enrollment) to complete the course, and there are no scheduled due dates for course activities. This option is best for self-motivated students who wish to complete what is typically a ten-week course either more quickly or over a longer period of time.
Students who enroll after the course's scheduled start date should be aware that they will have less than the full two quarters to complete course activities. Any students who wish to take advantage of the full two-quarter time window should enroll in the subsequent quarter's self-paced course in advance of the course's start date.
This is an online course, wherein all course content is delivered online and all interaction among the instructor and the participants will take place online; additional requirements include microphone, headphones/speakers, and webcam.
Technical requirements: Students are responsible for providing a personal computer with a minimum of 4GB of RAM that is capable of running Windows 10. Apple hardware running macOS can be used provided that Windows 10 is installed either using Boot Camp or virtualization (VirtualBox, Parallels, etc.) with at least 4GB of RAM allocated to Windows. Hardware specifications in excess of these minimum requirements will offer better performance and a better student experience. Students will be provided with a student license for ArcGIS as long as they are enrolled in program courses for which ArcGIS is required.
Enrollment limited to 50 students; early enrollment recommended. Visitors not permitted. Internet access required. Materials required.
