Among the programs would be a new master of geographic information systems degree. GIS captures, stores, analyzes and manages data spatially referenced to the earth. UCA’s board of trustees has already approved the program.
If approved by the Higher Learning Commission, the GIS program would be offered exclusively via online distance learning. It would be the only GIS program in central Arkansas.
