Welcome to the Kingston Centre for GIS. We are known globally for excellence in innovation, teaching and research, and were the first university in the world to offer a full undergraduate degree in GIS. We are noted by The Times as being a "world leader in GIS".

We currently offer major and minor undergraduate degrees in GIS, as well as MSc degrees in Applied GIS and Geographical Information Systems and Science. Other training activities include our Professional Distance Learning programme and GIS Summer School.

The Centre for GIS is located at Kingston University's Penrhyn Road Campus. For a detailed 3D site model click on the Google Earth icon. The model has been built by 3rd year GIS students and forms part of a course in GeoVisualisation.
