GIS Systems a boost?

<p>I am really interested in a career in urban and regional planning. </p>

<p>I am currently in a Masters Program in Environmental Science and Policy.</p>

<p>I have the option to earn a certificate specialization in GIS Systems and Spatial Analysis at the School of Design. </p>

<p>Do you guys think this is worth the extra semester to get?</p>

<p>How would a Masters Degree in Environmental Science and Policy and a specialization certificate in GIS Systems and Spatial Analysis fare out in the workforce? </p>

<p>Other two options for specialization are in Land Use Preservation, and Urban Redevelopment. </p>

<p>Which one would be the best? Is GIS specialization really a good thing to have today?</p>
