Master of Applied Spatial Science

About this programme

The Master of Applied Spatial Science will give you the skills to apply spatial science technologies and analysis techniques to solve real-world problems across a diverse range of fields and vocations. This in-depth program is delivered both online and on-campus from Darwin, which is Australia's gateway to Indonesia and Southeast Asia. The course carries a strong focus upon the application of open-source spatial science technologies, developing professional contacts through work placement, and field skills including operating research-grade global positioning system units, spectroradiometers, terrestrial LiDAR system, and UAVs. You will apply the latest spatial science tools and techniques to data relevant to multiple sectors including, Environmental Science, Precision Agriculture, Disaster and Emergency Management, and Health. Through this course you will gain important transferable employability skills, including collaboration, preparing a resume and addressing selection criteria, clear scientific writing, report writing, and preparing and delivering oral presentations. The Graduate Certificate of Spatial Science is nested within the Master's degree course as an entry and exit pathway to this program
