We have two certificate programs!
In our modern visual world it’s critical that students learn to create professional map and data analysis products. SAVI’s curriculum focuses on design-oriented data analytics that teach students to transform their raw data into compelling stories. We offer two programs in GIS: a graduate-level certificate and a not-for-credit certificate. Students in the not-for-credit program begin with a foundational visual design class while students in the graduate-level advanced certificate can take electives focused on data analytics and visualization.
