There are several points for attention in GIS specialty.
1, Geographic Information System (GIS) is a subject that needs to learn many subjects. Physical geography and network geography are not only related to geography, but also closely related to computers, so some programming courses such as computer basics and C programs also need to be studied.
2. The employment direction of this major is for relatively emerging navigation companies and some related departments of geospatial analysis. In fact, if you learn this course well, it is a highly technical course. When you really learn it, you can learn a lot, not just geography and astronomy.
3. Is it difficult to learn? This is different for everyone. As long as you want to learn, you can learn well. Don't learn yet. You don't want to learn when others say it's difficult to learn. If it is difficult to learn, is it difficult to learn Chinese studies? But some people are still fascinated by it.
4, this professional programming is very popular, of course, if you don't do research and development, you can learn those softwares, be a lecturer and teach others how to use them conveniently and quickly. Software and programming are very important in this course. You can't program, but you can't use software.
5. Many people are afraid of programming. You should keep the right attitude. If you like it, you must stick to it. Take your time. Don't rush to see the effect. It is necessary to listen to the teacher in class. Do some homework properly after class, and know the terms in machine language very well. Bad math has nothing to do with good programming. Programming requires logic and clear thinking.
Note: When choosing a major, don't care what others say, just do what you like. Once you decide, you must stick to it, because there is no retreat. It is ok to believe in yourself.
