Learn about the Applied GIS program

Embarking on the Environmental Studies - Natural Science degree was transformative. The program's rich variety of courses honed my understanding of the interconnectedness of our world. The hands-on experiences, from fieldwork to lab projects, provided valuable practical insights. I now work at the UFV's Office of Sustainability applying my classroom knowledge to real-world initiatives.
