For GIMA you need loads of self-discipline.
Before choosing GIMA, I did a Bachelor’s in Sociology at Utrecht University and an additional minor in Human Geography and some GIS courses. Both the minor and GIS courses helped get me onto the GIMA Master’s programme. So you don’t need to choose a Master’s that fits in perfectly as a follow-on after your Bachelor’s. Talk to a staff member and they will tell you about electives that will help you to get onto your preferred Master’s programme.
GIMA is intensive and it can be a lot of work. This means you need loads of self-discipline. If you get stuck on a certain assignment, you need to continue working to find a solution. If you do this, the Master’s is great and provides lots of opportunities. It is a useful programme and can be applied in many fields, which will give you the opportunity to work for an organisation that is committed to an issue that you are interested in.
