Bachelor´s Programme in Atmospheric Sciences, Oceanography and Climate Physics
Do you like physics, and are you curious about weather and climate? Do you want to study one of the most important issues of our time? Then the Bachelor's programme in Atmospheric Sciences, Oceanography and Climate Physics may be just what you are looking for!
You will use mathematics and physics to describe the processes that govern the weather and the Earth's climate. A meteorologist studies the atmosphere by using computer models and advanced measuring techniques.
Meteorology is a broad subject including both physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere. The programme offers a comprehensive education in the subject, mostly based on physics but also including atmospheric chemistry and oceanography. Meteorologists can work with for example daily weather forecasts or with the future climate of the Earth.
