UNDERCONSTRUCTIONSUMMER 2023!!

New Alumni Spotlight page is active! We are always excited to hear about the wonderful things our alumni are doing; the newsletter is one way to connect A new feature is a section of our website, the Alumni Profile, which highlights what past students are up to in their careers; this benefits our current students. We added this to our webpage under the same tab that includes our Student Spotlights; our hope is that alumni and current students will see more of what our community members are up to. The new Alumni Profile page can be found under 'About Us' on our website, geography.unt.edu! Over the summer we plan to fill this page with past alumni profiles and highlights from our previous newsletters and to work our way up to new entries! We will shift our featured alumni spotlights over time.

We had a great turnout at our first talk in the new series, World Leaders in Big Data Analytics that we co-hosted with UNT Data Analytics! Dr. Tony Grubesic, Director of Center for Geospatial Sciences and Professor at the University of California, Riverside, gave an engaging talk on Human-Centered Spatial Data Science (HCSDS),an emerging interdisciplinary field that emphasizes applied geography. We look forward to future speakers in the series next year!
