About the Department of Remote Sensing and GIS<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It is one of the scientific departments that were created this year 2015 in the College of Science \/ University of Baghdad. It is considered the only department in Iraq that prepares primary cadres in the field of remote sensing, processing and analysis of images and digital satellite and geoinformatics data. The idea of creating it came in response to the requirements of the labor market and the intense desire and urgent need.<\/span><\/span> Such a specialization is created due to the need of various state institutions for such modern specializations, as this department combines in its vocabulary the departments of earth sciences, physics, and computers, as well as the departments of civil engineering and surveying engineering, in addition to the concepts of remote sensing and processing and analysis of digital images.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Department vision:-<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

The vision of those in charge of managing the department is to strive for the department to be the first choice for university students accepted into the College of Science, as well as for those interested in the field of remote sensing and spatial information systems, by providing a positive academic environment aimed at providing distinguished education and programs that focus on scientific research in addition to developing…<\/span><\/span> Students\u2019 scientific capabilities, through preparing a comprehensive and advanced study plan that keeps pace with the requirements of the labor market and focuses on remote sensing technology, geographic information systems, software, Internet applications, and databases.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Department message:-<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

Providing qualified, effective and specialized outputs in the field of remote sensing and spatial information systems with a high level of theoretical knowledge and the ability to apply actual practical applications of remote sensing activities to keep pace with the needs of the labor market.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The department\u2019s connection to the college\u2019s goals and mission:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

The College of Science at the University of Baghdad aims to qualify students enrolled in basic sciences in many specializations within its nine scientific departments, represented by the Department of (Physics, Chemistry, Life Sciences, Astronomy, Earth Sciences, Computer Sciences, Mathematics, and Biotechnology, and finally the Department of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems, which was created in 2015) in addition to<\/span><\/span> Research units with a focus on quality through modern and advanced curricula based on authentic scientific theories and practical applications related to the Iraqi environment, which seek to supply our dear country with its need for specialists in various fields.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Since the specialization of remote sensing and geographic information systems has become one of the most prominent specializations that many universities in developed countries are interested in, therefore, it is natural for the College of Science to seek – within the framework of its development plans – to establish a department for remote sensing and spatial information systems, while ensuring that it is linked to the college\u2019s goals and mission.<\/span><\/span> To achieve this, it is decided that the department will include new scientific curricula that derive their components and roots from the actual requirements of the labor market and the needs of the Iraqi market, with interest in developing these curricula in a way that meets the needs of production and service business institutions and keeps pace with local and global changes, most notably the continuous development in the field of informatics and the expansion of the services sector.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
