In Geographical Information Management and Applications (GIMA), students will be introduced to the theoretical, methodological, technological and organisational principles of processing and analyzing digital geo-information, the management and research aspects of geo-information, and the innovative application of geo-information in a wide variety of spatial application fields.
Furthermore, GIMA is a blended learning Master's programme, which means that most of the time students are studying from the place where students think they can study best (e.g. at home, or the local library). Students study full time (2 yrs.) or part time (4 yrs.).
A compulsory internship allows the student to gain practical experience in a (geo-information) working environment. The internship is carried out within geo-information companies, agencies and research institutes in the Netherlands or abroad. The student submits a report about the internship.

Waarom aan de UU?
There are two aspects which make GIMA a unique program: the blended learning concept and the co-operation between four renowned Dutch universities. The GIMA Master's programme is a joint venture of four Dutch Universities. Utrecht University, as well as Delft University of Technology, University of Twente and Wageningen University, each bring their expertise to the table for GIMA.

Na de studie
GIMA alumni work in the private sector with for example energy or utility companies, or in the field of geo-marketing or consulting. Furthermore, graduates could start their career in the public sector: in research institutes, municipalities, or other governmental services. A combination of both sectors would also be possible. Furthermore, GIMA is a programme with ample attention for academic and research skills in the first six modules and this makes for a solid basis for a possible PhD.
Beroepsperspectief / arbeidsmarkt
During the GIMA master programme, students get ample opportunity to visit and meet with potential employers. Field trips, guest lectures, conference visits and workshops are all available to students to ensure their jobmarket orientation and give them a sense of where they might find a job upon completion of the programme.
Experience has also shown that many GIMA course participants are offered jobs with the company or organisation where they did their internship. If only for this reason, GIMA allows students to end the programme with the internship instead of with the thesis. Because of the fact that the internship is such an important element of GIMA, the programme maintains intensive contacts with potential internship providers and these providers have learned that vacancy announcements can quickly be made through GIMA communication channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, Blackboard electronic learning environment).aansluitende masteropleidingen
