UCL's CASA and Geography becomes one of three founding EDCs

The EDC programme provides recognition and special status for exemplary focus on educating students to design and develop GIS applications using ESRI's desktop or server technology. Students enrolled in EDC programmes are given special access to ESRI software and have opportunities to be recognised for their accomplishments.  There will be a 'student of the year' award, regular participation in the annual ESRI Developer Summit and special arrangements for internships with ESRI Inc. Paul Longley and Maurizio Gibin accepted the conferment of EDC status at a lunch awards ceremony at the ESRI Developer Summit in Palm Springs on 18th March.
