Geospatial knowledge is in high demand with employers and is particularly important in energy development. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing technologies are used throughout the energy industry including:
Siting new generation facilities including wind farms and solar arrays
Establishing routes for transmission and distribution lines
Assessing social and environmental impacts
Creating energy resource market scenarios
Monitoring assets including pipelines and power lines
With the addition of under 12 credit hours, students can add an undergraduate certificate in GIS or remote sensing. Download our flyer to learn how these certificates work with the Energy Resource Management and Development program. The Wyoming Geospatial Science Center hosts the program.
