Program details
Overview
This online certificate prepares graduates for roles in land-based industries built on spatial and tabular data, delivered through project-based, software-heavy and interdisciplinary coursework. Students develop foundational GIS skills and current GIS science techniques for creating spatial solutions, covering spatial analysis and modeling, remote sensing, digital photogrammetry, object-oriented programming, and web mapping and web GIS. Students then apply these technical skills within their own specialization, among options such as other sciences, community health, social sciences, humanities or engineering.

Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for Fall 2027 entry, applications open in early October 2026 and the equal-consideration date is 1 February 2027, after which later applications are assessed on a first-come basis until seats fill; non-competitive programs begin receiving offers from 1 November 2026, competitive-program offers go out by 30 March 2027, and 1 May 2027 is the usual deadline to accept an offer. International applicants apply directly to Fanshawe (CAD 100 fee) and face fixed document deadlines rather than a single closing date: for the current intakes, study-permit and conditions-met documents are due 10/15 August 2026 (Fall), 9/15 December 2026 (Winter) and 5/15 April 2027 (Summer); missing a deadline can mean deferral to the next intake. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
