• GEO 2840: INT Geospatial Internship

  1.00 - 3.00 Credits

  Weber State University

  
  This summative course provides a structured work experience in a supervised setting under the direction of a geospatial employer mentor and the course instructor. The internship will give students invaluable experience with technical, professional, and ethical issues commonly faced by geospatial professionals in today's workforce. Each student will work with their supervisor/mentor and instructor to develop a set measurable Internship Learning Outcomes (ILOs) that will be used to evaluate performance and competence in a real-world job situation. Prerequisite:    GEO 1720 and GEOG 2400

• GEO 2850: Geospatial Capstone

  3.00 Credits

  Weber State University

  
  This capstone course provides a summative learning experience that is a culmination of a student's geospatial education. Students apply their knowledge and skills to develop, implement, and evaluate a geospatial project that simulates a workplace environment, including collaboration as part of a team when appropriate. Students and the instructor develop a set of measurable Capstone Learning Outcomes (CLOs) that will be used to evaluate performance and competence to complete a geospatial project from start to finish. Prerequisite:    GEO 1720 and GEO 2200 and GEOG 2400
