The School of Sciences of
IGNOU has launched the Post Graduate Certificate Programme in
Geoinformatics (PGCGI). Geoinformatics technologies deal with
acquisition, storage, processing and dissemination of spatial
information. Geoinformatics is an emerging field and the demand of
geoinformatics professionals is increasing by the day in both Government
and private sectors because of its application potential in several
fields. The PG Certificate programme has been designed and developed
with the help of eminent experts from IIT, IIIT, ISRO, DRDO, C-DAC and
various universities across India from the fields of remote sensing,
GIS, GPS, image interpretation, digital image processing, cartography,
and different application areas.
The programme is mainly targeted at working professionals who possess
little or no exposure to Geoinformatics but are interested in
initiating and developing skills in this emerging field. Graduates
desirous of developing skills in this field can also take admission in
this programme. So, any graduate who has studied science at 10+2 level
can take admission in this PG Certificate programme, which is offered
both in January and July sessions of IGNOU. Duration of the PG
Certificate in Geoinformatics programme is six months, however, learners
can complete it within a span of two years and there is no age bar.
This programme provides opportunity to learners interested to develop
basic skills and willing to go for higher studies in geoinformatics. It
will also be helpful in strengthening the efficiency and effectiveness
of in-service personnel working in various organisations dealing with
the use of geospatial data.
The programme is in offer in distance mode and the Regional Centres
situated in various States of India will enrol learners. The learners
will be provided with student support service through Study Centres
established at various places. Currently, the study centres for this
programme are located at Srinagar (J&K), Pune (Maharashtra), Durg
(Chhattisgarh), Guwahati (Assam) and New Delhi.
