Dear Colleagues,

We still have room in our spring and May Term GIS courses at UMaine at Machias! Please pass the word. For our GIS I and II sequence, choose between undergraduate or graduate offerings. All of our courses are offered in online, blended or short-term intensive formats. They involve lots of hands-on activities and open-ended projects that are immediately applicable in the workplace or in academic research. 

If you plan to just take a course or two, you can call the UMM registrar to enroll at 207-255-1223. 

If you're interested in pursuing a certificate or degree, learn more at https://machias.edu/academics/. You can apply to the university here: https://machias.edu/admissions/.

Any questions? Drop me a line!
