For some, it's a calling rather than a job. It's geography, maps, technology, and computers, along with storytelling, exploration, and problem solving.
It's all of it, rolled into one. Geospatial Technology (GST) teaches you to analyze and visualize data through a geographic lens. It's a mix of art and science that brings information to life. Those working in this field learn to collect, process, analyze, map, and deploy geolocated information, then transform that data into actionable insights.
At Harford, you'll acquire and master the skills and software you need to pursue a career in this fast-growing field that spans multiple industries in both the public and private sectors. Our degree and certificate programs allow students the options to quickly enter the workforce, add onto their studies by pursing work in a specific GST field, or transfer to earn a bachelor's degree.
Harford's small, student-centered, and flexible learning class options are the ideal learning environment for your geospatial technology studies.
