Study programme Geoinformatics

About study programme

The doctoral study programme Geoinformatics offers a modern interdisciplinary study based on a combination of technical and natural-science foundations. The programme develops knowledge in the field of theoretical concepts of geoinformatics (GIscience) as well as in areas such as remote sensing of the Earth's surface by satellites and unmanned systems, building of spatial databases, use of spatial analysis, spatial modelling and simulations, artificial intelligence or advanced GNSS measurement processing and geovisualisation. Students can focus on applying their own geoinformation solutions, e.g. in transport, agriculture, forestry, geomorphology, hydrology, environment, social geography, criminology or studying social networks. The study programme addresses current trends within the framework of strategic requirements of the state administration expressed in GeoInfoStrategie+, 4.0 industry requirements and 4.0 society, development of remote sensing methods, big geodata, cloud solutions, geoweb services, as well as geocomputation. The Geoinformatics study programme provides highly-erudite creative experts with career prospects in the area of scientific research and development, state administration, or the industrial sphere.
