Climate Science and Impacts Engineering Concentration

The Climate Science and Impacts Engineering concentration is for students interested in studying the Earth’s changing climate and understand how climate change impacts other aspects of the Earth’s system including society.

Meteorology Concentration

The Meteorology concentration allows students to obtain a broad-based education that provides the theoretical and computational skills necessary to properly analyze and understand meteorological phenomenon ranging from synoptic scale weather systems to micrometeorological energy exchanges at the Earth’s surface.
