Keyin’s Geographic Information Systems program focuses on the use of computer technology to integrate, manipulate, and
display a wide range of information to create a picture of an area’s geography, environment, and socio-economic
characteristics. GIS plays an important role in activities such as environmental monitoring, management of land and marine resources, construction, and real estate transactions..
