In this paper we present objectives, structure and contents of an international master‘s program in Cartography established in 2011. Based on the cooperation of three technical universities, Technical University of Munich, Germany (TUM), Technical University of Dresden, Germany (TU Dresden) and Technical University of Vienna, Austria (TU Vienna), the program holds unique expertise and reflects the ongoing technological developments as well as interactions between the individual disciplines in cartography, geoinformatics and other neighboring disciplines. The new international master‘s program is rooted in the traditional German and Austrian Diploma -Geodesy and Geoinformation □, but has been progressively specified as an interdisciplinary and stand-alone program. The curriculum of -Cartography □ incorporates and highlights methods and applications in spatial data modeling, analysis and visualization of geographic information that we regard as core areas for education within this master program.
