“Students in fields such as data science, public health, business, and journalism know the value GIS brings to their work yet often lack access to software and training,” said Jack Dangermond, Esri founder and president. “This program provides these motivated students who can’t access ArcGIS through their institution with a way to learn independently and acquire additional skills that expand their career options in the digital economy.”
Students will receive access to ArcGIS Online and over 20 apps including ArcGIS Pro, along with a library of lessons that cultivate skills in spatial analysis, data science, coding, and storytelling with maps. Access is available globally to students ages 18 and over.
