The graduating students presented their master theses, which were highly appreciated by the audiences. The students conveyed their message to their current peers as well as to other delegates: “it seemed hard to work through the course tasks but today we are in a
position to state confidently that it was worth investing time and
effort for such a high quality education and internationally recognised
qualification
“.

UNIGIS congratulates all graduating students and wishes them well in their ‘geospatial careers’!
