GRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS Earth Remote Sensing, M.S. ___________________ Major Code: 8089 Degree Awarded: Master of Science Age Restriction: N Admission Status: graduate Delivery Mode/s: classroom only Location/s: main campus Admission Materials: 3 letters of recommendation, résumé, objectives, GRE Program Chair George A. Maul, Ph.D. Earth remote sensing is the science, engineering and art of quantitative measurement from satellites, aircraft, marine vehicles, buoys and moorings, radar and other platforms removed from the target. It includes understanding the instrumentation, software, radiative transfer, hydroacoustics and principles of systems designed to acquire, process and interpret information about Earth for application to vital contemporary problems in agriculture, coastal zone management, ecology, engineering, environmental science and resource management, forestry, land use, meteorology, natural hazards, oceanography, urban planning and other issues. Admission Requirements Students applying for admission to the Earth remote sensing program should have undergraduate majors in the physical or life sciences with strong backgrounds in computer science. Students with bachelor’s degrees in other scientific or engineering fields may need to complete certain preparatory coursework before starting the master of science program, and completion of such courses may require additional time. Any such requirements will be determined by the program chair and graduate faculty before admission. The prospective student will be advised of these requirements prior to acceptance. Applicants must submit GRE General Test scores for evaluation, a statement of interests, a résumé and three letters of recommendation. General admission requirements and the process for applying are presented in the Academic Overview section. Degree Requirements The Master of Science in Earth Remote Sensing is offered with thesis and nonthesis options. The thesis option requires the satisfactory completion of a minimum of 30 credit hours of required and elective credits (includes six credit hours of thesis) and the nonthesis option requires a minimum of 33 credits hours (includes a written final program examination), based on an approved program plan developed in conjunction with the faculty advisor. Included in the total are at least nine credit hours of core remote sensing courses as listed below. Core Courses ENS 5000 Environmental Science Seminar (each semester) .................. 0 ENS 5010 Environmental Optics and Remote Sensing........................... 3 MET 5233 Atmospheric Remote Sensing ................................................. 3 OCE 5550 Bathymetry ............................................................................. 3 OCN 5704 Oceanic Remote Sensing ........................................................ 3 Electives A list of restricted electives is available from the department. The curriculum is modified to meet the student’s needs, background and chosen area of emphasis, which may be atmospheric, land, submarine or oceanic remote sensing. Students are required to attend the graduate seminar. Environmental Resource Management, M.S. ________ Major Code: 8135 Degree Awarded: Master of Science Age Restriction: N Admission Status: graduate Delivery Mode/s: classroom only Location/s: main campus Admission Materials: 3 letters of recommendation, résumé, objectives, GRE Program Chair John G. Windsor Jr., Ph.D. Environmental resource management has become an area of national and international significance. Resource managers, typically in the public and private developmental sectors, face increasingly complex technical problems that cut across several of the more traditional educational disciplines. In addition to the fundamentals of biological and chemical environmental processes, managers must be knowledgeable in local and global cause and effect relationships of human activities in the development and use of environmental resources. Resource managers must also understand the legal and regulatory aspects of resources management. Recognizing these multidisciplinary needs, the master’s degree program in environmental resource management is closely associated with the environmental science program at Florida Tech and includes both university coursework and an internship with a regulatory agency, NGO or private company that manages environmental resources. Graduates are well prepared to effectively interact with engineers, scientists, managers and politicians. Admission Requirements Students applying for admission to the environmental resources management program should have undergraduate majors in science or engineering, or sufficient coursework in the physical and life sciences and engineering to readily understand the fundamental biological, chemical and physical relationships important in environmental resource management. In some instances, additional preparatory work in some areas may be required at the beginning of the program. The prospective student is advised of such requirements before final acceptance. Each applicant is strongly encouraged to arrange for a conference regarding program content and qualifications with faculty and the program chair or other faculty member before arriving on campus to begin an academic program. 2013–2014 Degree Programs—College of Engineering 131
