    GIIS stands on the vanguard of technological advancement, using digital electronics to guarantee the safety and well being of every student under its purview. For example, the GIIS SMART Campus will employ interconnected facial recognition technology that will automatically record student attendance and monitor the movement of students as they travel from class to class. In addition to facial recognition, the campus will employ electronic ID cards and biometric software to give students access to classrooms and public areas that include the GIIS SMART Campus cafeteria and library. This same technology allows students to lock and unlock their private lockers without the hassle of keys or combinations.

    Useful for both classroom projects and special events, the GIIS SMART Campus’ 40-seat AV room has state-of-the-art high-definition video projection and full audio recording capabilities. This room is the perfect place to host guest speakers and facilitate student presentations.
