Internships

It is possible to carry out extracurricular internships during the school period. In general, the internships will have a maximum duration of 30% of the ECTS necessary to pass the degree and 40% in the UPV title degrees.

Objectives

• To provide students with the basic principles of geographic information systems, the interpretation of Earth observation data and their processing for their application in the monitoring of terrestrial ecosystems.
• Identify the main effects of climate change on agroforestry, coastal and urban systems that can be reduced through the use of geo-information techniques.
• Train in the use of tools for the processing and analysis of Earth observation data and other georeferenced data aimed at adapting to climate change and reducing its effects on agroforestry, coastal and urban systems.
• Analyse and evaluate results obtained using remote sensing and GIS techniques to optimise the management of different types of terrestrial ecosystems.

Who this course is for

University students, posgraduate and professionals who want to learn basic concepts of remote sensing and GIS and their application in climate change management in agriculture, forests, coastal and urban areas.

Access requirements

A bachelor's or engineering degree is required. Exceptionally, bachelor's degree students who have a maximum of 30 ECTS pending access may enter.
Given that the training will be entirely in English, a minimum level of comprehension in this language is required, which will be assessed by the degree committee.
