Case Study on the Utilization of Geographic Information Systems in Graduation Research within the Business Administration Department

Abstract

In my seminar class, students have attained a notable degree of success in their graduation research through the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Beyond conventional domain analyses like buffer analysis and the Huff model, it was discovered that advanced techniques such as accessibility analysis are well-suited for graduation research, even among students specializing in business administration. Moreover, by leveraging GIS as a low-code development tool, they achieved agile system development throughout their graduation research projects. These insights underscore the significance of GIS tools and emphasize the need for a user-oriented educational approach, distinct from the traditional engineercentric education paradigm.
