Meteorology
Meteorologists study the physical processes that determine the earth’s weather and climate. The Meteorology Program provides students with the knowledge and skills to pursue careers in the private sector, public sector, and broadcasting or to continue their education in graduate school. Our program meets or exceeds the national guidelines established by the American Meteorological Society. With a suitable elective selection, it also meets the Federal requirements for employment by the National Weather Service and other Federal agencies. Meteorology majors are strongly encouraged (but not required) to pursue a minor in a complimentary field to supplement their major and prepare them for their
