This immersive event gives students the chance to explore cutting-edge tools, engage with HU’s STEM-focused programs, and discover the many career pathways available in this exciting and rapidly growing field.
Throughout the day, participants will take part in interactive sessions led by HU faculty and students, including:
Hands-On Map Creation: Learn how geospatial professionals build, analyze, and interpret maps used across industries.
GeoInquiries: Dive into real-world geographic questions through guided digital investigations.
Field Maps: Explore mobile geographic data collection and how geospatial tools support decision-making in environmental science, public safety, and more.

Geospatial Day is a fun, educational opportunity for students to ask questions, engage in team-based activities, and connect with HU students and faculty who are shaping the future of STEM and geospatial innovation. We hope to see you there as we explore the world, one map, one drone flight, and one discovery at a time.
