Which course should I start the GISc Certificate Program with?
GEP 204/504: Basic Mapping Science: Applications and Analysis and GEP 205/505: Principles of GISc do not require prerequisites courses, so it is feasible to start the program with either of these. Generally, students who have some prior familiarity with basic computing can start with GEP 205/505, but we recommend that students who are not computer literate should start with GEP 204/504. If both courses are being offered in the same term, students may take both simultaneously. It is also possible to start with GEP 204/504 and an elective, or GEP 205/505 and an elective.
