5.00 Credits
2 (1 + 2) Prerequisite: GEG 1220 with a grade of "C" or better; or permission of instructorGIS 2250 recommended This course is an introduction to the science of land navigation using maps and a Global Positioning System (GPS), Students navigate positions in the field and apply cartographic principles to GPS lab and field exercises. Emphasis is given to the integration of GPS data with Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
-
5.00 Credits
3 (2 + 2) Prerequisite: GIS 2250 and MTH 1210 with grades of "C" or better; or permission of instructorThis course focuses on basic cartographic and visualization concepts and techniques to convey spatial information. Students will critique and design basic cartographic products such as dot, choropleth, contour, and proportional symbol maps using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). They will explore advanced visualization techniques such as integrating data, text, and graphics, developing web maps, and animating maps to show temporal change. Cartographic applications for natural resource management and planning are stressed.

5.00 Credits
4 (3 + 2) Prerequisite: GIS 2250 and MTH 1110 with grade of "C" or better; upper division standing; or permission of instructorCorequisite: GIS 3250 This is an upper-division course in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with an emphasis on spatial analysis and modeling. The underlying foundations of map algebra are discussed along with practical exercises that allow the student to develop familiarity with those procedures. This course offers an opportunity for students with a solid background in the fundamentals of GIS to apply the analytical capabilities of this technology to model real-world situations in support of decision-making. Application of GIS to the fields of Land Use Planning and Natural Resource Management are emphasized.

5.00 Credits
4 (3 + 2) Prerequisite: GIS 2250 with a grade of "C" or better, upper division standing; or permission of instructorPrerequisite/Corequisite: GIS 3250 This course provides advanced theoretical and practical knowledge in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), with emphasis on vector data models. Students will gain conceptual knowledge about the advantages and limitations of various vector GIS data models (shapefiles, coverages, geodatabases) in support of land management and scientific applications, as well as practical exercises using Arc/Info and ArcGIS software. Students will gain advanced experience in spatial data management, spatial analysis, and project management. Students will be responsible for a GIS application project of their own creation.
-
5.00 Credits
3 (2 + 2) Prerequisite: GIS 4860 with a grade of "C" or better, and upper division standing; or permission of instructorThis upper-division course emphasizes the challenges and uniqueness of spatial data organization from specific database models to national spatial data infrastructures. Students will gain theoretical and practical experience designing, implementing, and managing georelational and object-relational databases for planning and natural resource applications. Practical experience in spatial database creation using Global Positioning Systems (GPS), Database Management Systems (DBMS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) will be stressed.
-
3.00 Credits
1 - 3 (1 - 3 + 0) Prerequisite: GIS 2250 with a grade of "C" or betterThis course covers important topics in GIS and remote sensing, emphasizing new concepts and technological developments. The course content will vary, and the course may be repeated for credit as the course topic changes with a maximum of six credits earned.
-
5.00 Credits
3 (1 + 4) Prerequisite: GIS 4850 and GIS 4860 with grades of "C" or better, and senior standing; or permission of instructorCorequisite: GIS 4870 This is a senior-level capstone course for land use majors with a concentration in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Students serve as GIS specialists working on individual or group projects with emphasis on land use applications. Students manage a project from inception to completion including databases and maps as well as a final report and presentation. (Senior Experience)
-
5.00 Credits
3 (3 + 0) Prerequisite: At least junior standing or Permission of instructor This courses analyzes the organizational structure of the health care system in the U.S. The nature of health and health care delivery is assessed. Emphasis is placed on the interrelatedness of cultural, economic, political, technological, and social aspects of health care delivery, along with its services and management. Disease origins and epidemiology are explored.
-
5.00 Credits
3 (3 + 0) Corequisite: HCM 3010 This is a course that is designed to provide a general orientation to management practices in the field of health care. The focus is on management concepts, processes, and theoretical content considered necessary for persons who intend to practice in a health care management position. Emphasis is placed on the differences in management of health care from other commodities and the importance of patient care and ethical issues. Trade-offs between patient care issues and financial accountability are addressed.
