Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce, April 25, 2024 – Ms. Seneca Holland of Texas A&M University Corpus Christi (TAMUCC) and the Conrad Blucher Institute for Surveying and Science (CBI) attended the Q2 Fort Bend GIS Consortium (FBGISC) meeting to present on the Geospatial Engineering and Land Surveying (GELS) Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathway. During this presentation members learned about the widespread efforts by TAMUCC and CBI to introduce geospatial science programs into high school curriculum across the state of Texas. Beginning with their pilot program at Klien ISD, there are now three TEA Regions (02, 04, 11) approved for GELS programs, with three other regions pending GELS approval (10, 13, 20). Members were also informed on ways to get schools in the Greater Fort Bend area involved as well as what kinds of resources and support TAMUCC and CBI could offer. Ultimately, members learned about the role they could play in ensuring the successful development and mentorship of future Geospatial Professionals.
