GIS, cartography and mapping is a cross-disciplinary field spanning various academic programs including Agriculture, Archeology, Architecture, Business, Engineering, Social Sciences, Physical Sciences, Natural Sciences and many more. Avenza's MAPublisher GIS and Cartography suite of plug-ins for Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia FreeHand allows educators to train students in the most widely accepted software applications in the world. Avenza’s MAPublisher brings GIS mainstream. Students with skills using MAPublisher will separate themselves from the competition by having valuable technological skills that employers will greatly benefit from. The MAPublisher learning curve is flatter and shorter than traditional GIS applications allowing students to apply their skills to the work at hand rather than being educated in how to apply the tools themselves. Furthermore, MAPublisher is prices far below the other common mapping products offering significant cost efficiency to the educational institution. MAPublisher is presently used by students and faculty world-wide and is now a core part of many educational curricula. Contact the Avenza sales department for information on special educational pricing, bundles and lab-packs.
GIS technology is one of the hottest new research tools in education today and one of the fastest growing high tech careers for new graduates. Many problems facing the world today such as environmental, economic, political, or social, exist in a geographic context and any analysis must take that into accountt. GIS technology provides powerful tools for geographic analysis for almost any academic discipline and as such, Avenza's products have tremendous application even outside the geography departments of schools and universities.
GIS is a field that spreads across many disciplines and is found in the classrooms of many academic departments including those listed below. For more information, please contact Avenza's educational program coordinator.
