Hi Bina,

So you are in your 3rd year and just started your CDC's as i understand from
ur id. I have had some literature on courses offered on GIS at MS level in
the States. I'll need to check my archives, gimme some time. Meanwhile i
suggest u take up the MIS elective offered at BITS and contact Rajiv Gupta
for some project on GIS. He too was interested in GIS when i communicated
with him last and he's sure to have more information on academics front.
There are quite a few job options in GIS in india itself, but they might not
sound so lucrative as other software development offers u are likely to get
by the time u r ready to take up one. But if u r genuinely interested to
pursue learning and career in GIS, u'll need to do some groundwork and find
out what exactly in GIS interests you. GPS as such would only be a drop in
the ocean. Check the journals in Ref-Lib to know more about Remote Sensing,
Photogrammetry, GIS applications, Cadastral Mapping, AM-FM to name a few and
get ur ideas clear. Also check www.geocomm.com and www.esri.com to pick up
related info and links. I'll try to get back to you soon with info on the
Univs and courses offered there. Good luck !

Bharat

Hi!!
feel really odd typing this out, cos all the questions posted here are
so technical....but then, i thought this was the best place to really get
sound advice....i'm a student of civil engineering..in my final year ...at
BITS, pilani(in India).
And i am seriously considering taking up GIS ,maybe masters in the US.
but i have absolutely no idea how to go about things.GPS actually
sounds very interesting,but i don't think universities have a separate
branch as such.
Anybody who could give me an idea as to what the job options are in
this field n the kind of work done or maybe some sites which talk about
it....please do let me know!!you'd be helping one very confused soul at
the moment!!
thanx!!

bina :)
