"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 training course provides an opportunity to develop different abilities and skills to handle laboratory equipment in a safe and precise manner.\n\nEvery student who will be using ITC’s GeoScience Laboratory for their MSc Research phase, for sample preparation or for selected lab experiments (analytical), will be required to follow this course.\n\nIn general lab skills the student will learn how to keep a proper lab journal and how to operate according to health and safety rules. The student will know how to take representative samples and will be introduced to a wide range of analytical techniques necessary to validate remote sensing or geo-information data. The student will learn to look critically at the obtained results.\n\nAs part of this course, the student will also learn how to perform statistical analysis on the results of lab experiments, and how to convert received data to the required concentrations. Throughout the course the student will be challenged to continuously monitor the quality of his/her experiments. To help the student to do so, he/she will document all lab work results in a so called ‘lab journal’.\n\nAll the learned skills are directly applicable in the student's MSc research phase when lab facilities are implemented. More in depth electives can be chosen when certain techniques need to be mastered."@en . "General Laboratory Skills"@en . "General Laboratory Skills"@en .
