"The Master’s Programme Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (M-GEO) is a two-year academic curriculum at MSc level, taught fully in English, dedicated to understanding the earth’s systems from a geographic and spatial perspective. The field of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation has, in recent years, witnessed fast scientific and technological developments. As a result, geographic information has become a vital asset to society and part of our daily life. The ubiquitous production and availability of spatial data require cloud computing and new technology to turn the increasing volume of ‘big data’ to good use. The growing range of global challenges, from climate change and resource depletion to environmental pollution and pandemic diseases, that our society and in particular the more vulnerable populations on our planet are facing, increases the demand for academic professionals who have the ability, attitudes and skills to design solutions that are sustainable, transdisciplinary and innovative with positive societal impacts. Our education focuses on addressing these global problems by means of advanced geo-information and earth observation applications."@en .

"This research-informed course contains lectures to introduce new theory, reading assignments and other self-study exercises with associated feedback sessions to deepen the theory, and supervised and unsupervised practicals to put the theory into practice. The course furthermore contains hands-on introductions to some key GeoScience Laboratory instruments. Overall, the course has a very strong experiential learning component.\n\nThe course will be completed by a group assignment in which skills from the course will be applied to an authentic sample set to produce a useful dataset and relevant scientific results in, as much as possible, a real-world context."@en .

"This course focuses on the use of spectroscopic methods to obtain geological information related to, for example, minerals and rocks, mineralised and geothermal systems, soils and other natural materials. It is designed for students with a solid understanding of Earth Sciences who wish to use state-of-the-art spectroscopic methods to analyse the mineral content and texture of samples.\n\nThe course will cover the interaction of matter with electromagnetic radiation of different wavelength ranges (e.g. visible, near- & short-wave infrared, as well as long-wave infrared). The students will be involved in laboratory measurements with various imaging and non-imaging spectroscopic instruments, and compare and contrast the results with those from other mineralogical and geochemical analytical methods. \n\nThe course further contains a component on statistical data processing and (semi-) quantitative spectral modelling techniques derived from current research. These analytical techniques will lead to information on the mineralogy and mineral chemistry of samples, as well as Earth surface parameters. The students will experiment with, validate and compare multiple approaches, investigate their assumptions and limitations, and critically evaluate their suitability to solve Earth science problems."@en .
