A hub for geographic discovery, innovation, applied research, service, and community, the Institute for Geospatial Impact (IGI) fosters the use of geographic information systems (GIS) and related technologies to advance the university's academic mission. A strong partner with geospatial industry leader, Esri, the IGI thrives on the cutting-edge application of the company's innovative technologies in higher education. The IGI designs spatial instructional activities, supports spatial instruction, and teaches GIS courses; engages in interdisciplinary spatial research; creates opportunities for spatial students to participate in community-based service-learning projects; fits students to spatial internships and career opportunities; organizes spatial networking events; and supports the use of GIS for campus planning, operations, maintenance, and sustainability.
