Futures Initiative

The Futures Initiative aims to advance greater equity and innovation in higher education. Housed at the Graduate Center and reaching throughout the CUNY community, the Futures Initiative empowers the next generation of intellectual leaders with bold, public, and engaged teaching and learning. The Futures Initiative fosters greater understanding of the complexities of the higher education landscape by spearheading qualitative and quantitative research in areas such as academic labor practices and reward systems, open-access multimedia publishing, data visualization and interpretation, and institutional change. Through HASTAC@CUNY (a hub of the online network Humanities, Arts, Science and Technology Alliance and Collaboratory), the Futures Initiative extends its collaborative peer-to-peer practices across institutions, disciplines, national boundaries, and economic and social disparities, promoting reinvestment in higher education as a public good.

Introductory GIS Workshops Fall 2018

  • Hello everyone,

    For the past several years I\’ve been running day-long introductory workshops in GIS using QGIS, usually a couple times each semester. I\’m running two sessions this semester; one on Fri Oct 26th that\’s already full, and another on Fri Nov 16th that still has plenty of available seats. The sessions are held at the GIS Lab at Baruch and are open to all current CUNY graduate students, faculty, and staff, and to Baruch undergrads. Advanced registration is required and there is a small registration fee. Participants get a light breakfast and a detailed tutorial manual to take with them.

    More information and the link to register is here:
