Į magistro studijų programas gali stoti visi, baigę universitetą arba besimokantys paskutiniame kurse. Studijos kurias baigei ar tebesimokai turi būti panašios krypties kaip ir tos, į kurias nori stoti, kadangi priėmimas yra paremtas ECTS kreditų suderinamumu.
- ECTS kreditų išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs aukštosios mokyklos, būtina prisegti ECTS kreditų išrašą, kuriame būtų matyti, kokius dalykus tu mokeisi bei kokius pažymius ir kiek kreditų už juos gavai. Kai siunti anketą paskutiniame kurse, diplomą reikia prisegti vėliau, kai tik jį gausi.
- Bakalauro diplomas – jei jau esi baigęs aukštąją mokyklą, išrašo nereikia, užtenka prie anketos prisegti savo Bakalauro diplomą.
Anglų kalbos žinias gali patvirtinti vienu iš šių būdų:
- IELTS – 6.0
- TOEFL – 80
- Entry to the Master of Science (MSc) programme in Geo-information Science and Earth observation requires a Bachelor degree or equivalent from a recognized university in a discipline related to the course, preferably combined with working experience in a relevant field.
Participants are expected to be familiar with the basic computer skills. Basic knowledge of and skills in working with GIS and/or remotely sensed data is an advantage.
AFTER YOU GRADUATE
Upon successful completion of this Master's programme you will be qualified to continue to PhD level, either in the Netherlands or abroad. If you choose to pursue a professional career instead, you will be well equipped to take up jobs in the private or (semi-)public sector. You could decide to start your own company in the geo business. If after graduating you return to your pre-study career, you will be even more of an asset to your employer than before.
Your Master’s degree will unlock a wealth of career opportunities. Depending on the profile you develop − and your personal interests, obviously − you’ll have many options to choose from. To illustrate, here are some examples of what ITC alumni ended up doing professionally.
