Have you always loved weather? Do you always get excited during a thunderstorm or when it snows? A degree in meteorology from UNC Charlotte can open so many paths and allow you to tap into that passion!
The Meteorology program at UNC Charlotte provides students with an understanding of the atmosphere and the development of methods for applying that knowledge to practical problems. Meteorology is an applied science that combines the fields of physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computer science into an application of understanding the atmosphere. The program exposes students to all of these disciplines, while in parallel applying these science concepts to mesoscale, synoptic, and global scale phenomena.
Students graduate with the skills and experience they need for professional employment within industry, private consulting firms, television, government, and the armed forces or for further study toward graduate degrees. Meteorology also has significant ties to environmental, agricultural, oceanic, and hydrological sciences and being in an interdisciplinary Geography and Earth Sciences department allows students to explore these classes and possible minors. For students wishing to pursue any of these areas, a degree in meteorology from UNC Charlotte is the path for you!
