Are there new elective courses that will be offered next year?

The faculty of the Chester F. Carlson Center Imaging Science are always looking to improve the quality and breadth of classes that are available to our students.  These new classes often appear as "Special Topics" prior to becoming a permeanent offering.  The following classes are proposed for the coming academic year.

Advance Applications of Environmental Remote Sensing
Remote Sensing Systems
Digital Color Management
