The Master of Spatial Analysis (MSA) is a Faculty of Arts graduate program that trains students to think geographically and apply Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to operational and strategic decision-making. The full-time program runs 12 months, with a 16-to-20-month thesis option, and is also available part-time over two years. Students take project-based lectures and labs, complete a work placement, and finish with a major research paper or, for full-time students, a thesis. The seven-credit curriculum includes four mandatory core courses and two elective credits. Coursework draws on research areas spanning business and commercial applications, physical and environmental geography, and social and community information analysis. Graduates work in fields including financial services, retail, real estate development, environmental consulting, crime analysis, epidemiology, telecommunications and natural resource management, applying GIS-based analysis to market assessment, site selection and environmental evaluation. Admission requires a four-year undergraduate degree with relevant coursework in a related discipline, including at least one course each in GIS and applied statistics or quantitative methods.
