Thesis Geo-information Science and Remote Sensing


General

The thesis is a compulsory part of every Master study programme of Wageningen University. A major thesis is between 24 and 39 Ects and is at least 36 Ects for the master programme Geo-information Science (MGI). Geo-information science thesis topics are narrowly related to the research programme of the Laboratory of Geo-informationt Science and Remote Sensing (GIRS). This research program covers a wide range of subjects. The following main themes have been selected to delineate the laboratory's identity:

  1. Spatial Data Infrastructure & Sensors
  2. Integrated Land Monitoring
  3. Society, Space and Decision
  4. Global context & societal benefits

The thesis research is conducted under supervision of a staff member of the GIRS group, but might also take place in another institute or company.

  • Students have to follow the GRS thesis prodedure. Complete guidelines for doing a thesis Geo-information Science are available. 
  • For the planning of the thesis research an overview with dates for the midterm presentations and colloquia are scheduled.
  • Thesis topics can be selected from the GRS thesis topic list or under conditions be proposed by individual students.
  • Past thesis projects can be consulted.
