Mineral Materials/IMACS is an integrated MSc dedicated to the analysis, study and development of natural minerals and geomaterials to respond to environmental and sustainable development issues.

Geoinformation is key to understanding and analysing regional development. Recent decades have brought major changes, with the appearance of new spatial and aerial sensors and platforms, including unmanned systems; neocartography; information processing systems, and IT networks facilitating access to information. This has triggered a technological revolution and a major shift in the way we approach geomatic engineering.

The MSc in Geospatial Data Science is a cutting-edge programme that merges geography with data science. It offers advanced training in spatial statistics, programming, big data analytics, and remote sensing. The programme is tailored for students who wish to master the tools and techniques required to analyze complex spatial data for decision-making in government and industry.

The MPhil and PhD programmes offer rigorous training in advanced geographical research. Students work closely with world-class faculty on independent research projects across a wide range of disciplines, including climate change, water resources, urban and transport geography, and geospatial science.

The master’s degree in Geography and Territorial Sciences trains professionals capable of integrating cultural, socio-economic, technical and planning knowledge for spatial and environmental analysis, organisation and management. As such, it trains a new generation of skilled workers and citizens who can effectively deal with the unprecedented contemporary societal, economic and political challenges both locally and internationally

The master's degree in Geography and Territorial Sciences trains professionals capable of integrating cultural, socio-economic, technical and planning knowledge for spatial and environmental analysis, organisation and management. As such, it trains a new generation of skilled workers and citizens who can effectively deal with the unprecedented contemporary societal, economic and political challenges both locally and internationally (e.g., environmental crisis, planetary urbanisation, globalisation, geopolitical tensions).
