You’ll be equipped with tools that incorporate the wide use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies and the application of computational methods in geography and computer science, as well as other social sciences.

Your computer science coursework will focus on technical skill development in these areas:

applying formal logic and mathematics
developing algorithms and data structures
developing software systems at different levels of abstraction
fundamental computational problem-solving skills
thinking abstractly
Your geography courses will train you in:

GIS and digital mapping
spatial analytics
spatial reasoning to explore phenomena, relationships and processes that have spatial patterns and distributions
The Jarvis College of Computing and Digital Media (CDM) is located on the Loop Campus, in the heart of Chicago’s technology and business districts, providing you with many opportunities to work professionally with leading software development and GIS technology companies. Many CDM faculty members are working professionals, allowing you to learn firsthand from leaders in the tech industry.
