In order to strengthen the field of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) and to introduce this system in policy making and planning, National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) established “Institute of Geographical Information Systems”.The purpose of this Institute is to serve as an integrated platform for the support of fundamental GIS capabilities and capacity building in the field of Geographical Information Systems. After the successful completion of three short courses in GIS/RS and tremendous response from the public and private sectors working for national progress, IGIS proudly announced in 2005 the commencement of first Master’s Degree Program in GIS, Remote Sensing and GPS application areas. The MS Program will not only improve the spatial data awareness but will also help to achieve enduring information, environment for research and learning. This program will develop a better understanding of data resources within the country and spatial data utilization for resource management.
