Please share this announcement with promising undergraduates who are
considering master's studies in cartography, GIS, and remote sensing.
The Department of Geography at California State University, Long Beach,
is inviting Fall 2009 applications for its highly successful M.A.
program.  Three of our graduate students have won the College of Liberal
Arts Outstanding Thesis Award and one of these was the campus nomination
to the Western Association of Graduate Schools as its best thesis!
Since 2005,  23 students have completed their theses (out of roughly
40-45 under active supervision).  We have a solid track record in
sending students on to Ph.D. programs, and our  alumni are in demand and
enjoy excellent career paths (with virtually all in geography-related
professional, managerial, and technical positions).

We have a strong program in cartography and GIS and a large and
successful alumni community in the geospatial techniques.  Two new
faculty will be joining us this fall as well.   Hyowon Ban's research
lies in cartography, geovisualization, and GIS modelling of uncertainty
and inherently fuzzy concepts in urban morphology.  Jacqueline Mills'
work addresses GIS applications in emergency management and the ethical
issues presented by geocoded data.

Applications should be completed by 15 April.  Detailed instructions on
application may be found at
http://www.csulb.edu/geography/graduateinvitation.pdf .  A flyer
summarizing the highlights of our program may be accessed at
http://www.csulb.edu/geography/geoma09.pdf (and we would be most
grateful if you would consider posting this flyer for students to see).

Thank you for your time and assistance.
