Here in Nigeria, with growing needs for environmental monitoring, spatial planning, and geoscience applications, the demand for experts in Remote Sensing & GIS is increasing. If this seems like your path, knowing which universities offer the programme, what subjects JAMB needs you to take, and what O’Level grades you need will help you prepare well and make informed choices. In this blog you will find: A list of Nigerian universities offering Remote Sensing & Geosciences Information System
The required JAMB / UTME subject combination for admission into that course O’Level subject and grade requirements (WAEC, NECO etc.)
##What is Remote Sensing and Geosciences Information System Course?
Remote Sensing is the process of gathering information about an object or phenomenon from a distance, typically using satellites or aircraft to capture images and other data. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are computer systems that store, analyze, and manage spatial data, providing tools to interpret and display geographic information for decision-making.
