性奴调教

性奴调教's master's degree in meteorology听is geared toward students who plan to enter听性奴调教's meteorology doctoral program听after completion. It is also a good fit for students who want to work in a research capacity or enhance their qualifications for forecasting positions.

性奴调教's meteorology program听collaborates with research and听operational meteorologists at national centers and the St. Louis National Weather Service forecast offices.

Curriculum Overview

Meteorology master's students at 性奴调教 study the dynamics of air motion; physical processes such as transfer of radiation; and convection resulting in severe storms, flash floods and hurricanes.听

The Master of Science in Meteorology requires 24 credits of coursework and six credits of thesis research. Meteorology research is underway at 性奴调教 on heavy precipitation, regional climate and air quality using numerical weather prediction models.

Fieldwork and Research Opportunities

性奴调教's Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Geospatial Science听is a charter member of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), which manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, under the sponsorship of the National Science Foundation.

External funding for research comes from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the National Weather Service and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The department has a dedicated synoptic computer lab and receives real-time data from satellite downlink and the Internet.

Software for displaying and analyzing weather data comes from Unidata Program Center, the National Weather Service and locally written code.

Careers

性奴调教 meteorology graduates work for federal and state government agencies, such as the National Weather Service, Federal Aviation Administration, NASA and the Environmental Protection Agency. Others are employed in the private sector, conducting atmospheric and agricultural research, weather forecasting and air quality assessments.

Admission Requirements

Successful applicants possess sufficient GPA and English proficiency scores (for international students) and research interests compatible with ongoing research in the department.
