GIS is everywhere.   It is almost impossible to think of a field that does not use mapping or spatial analysis.

Anytime someone asks Where...?

GIS can answer:

• Where is the fire?
• Where is the best location for a new office?
• Where is the bird flu likely to appear next?
• Where can I find a new house that meets my needs?

GIS will get you the job.   Employers are looking for new hires with GIS experience.
