1) What will I learn?

If you can reach an appropriate standard in the Diploma Course you have the opportunity to continue to the MSc in GIS. For the MSc you will complete a research project in the topic of your choice.
Undertaking a research project gives you the opportunity to develop your skills in problem definition, research design and planning, data analysis and interpretation and presentation.
See examples of Msc theses written by our students.

2) Structure and timetable

The MSc project requires one extra year on top of the two years needed to complete the diploma
course. However, you have five years from the date you start your diploma to complete both programs.
