Study the science that surrounds us

Atmospheric Science research in the department is focused on understanding the聽physics and chemistry of the atmosphere. We design and build instrumentation, conduct field and laboratory experiments, interpret observations, develop sophisticated models and advance theory.聽 Our research is performed聽in collaboration with students聽at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in the Departments of Physics and Atmospheric Science, Chemistry, Engineering, and Oceanography.

Diploma in Meteorology

Do you check the weather every morning before you go outside? Have you often looked up at the sky, watching unusual cloud patterns form? Are you fascinated by reports of extreme weather events here in Canada and around the globe? 黄色直播's Diploma in Meteorology (D.Met.) will allow you to explore in depth your interests in weather and atmospheric phenomena.

Students with a general 90 credit hour BSc degree in Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, or other quantitative disciplines, may apply for admission into a one year Diploma in Meteorology program, provided they have completed the appropriate Physics and Mathematics courses. A strong background in Physics and Mathematics is necessary, and courses taken should cover Vector Calculus and differential equations. 聽

Course requirements:

• .03: Atmospheric Physics/.03: Light Scattering, Radiative Transfer, and Remote Sensing
• .03: Synoptic Meteorology I/.03: Synoptic Meteorology II
• .03: Atmospheric Dynamics I/.03: Atmospheric Dynamics II
• .03: Introduction to Atmospheric Science/.03: Atmospheric Chemistry
• .03:Physical Oceanography
• .03: Numerical Modelling of Atmospheres and Oceans聽or another three credit hour course approved by Program Coordinator

After completion of the Diploma program, students are eligible to be considered for admission to a graduate program in Atmospheric Science at 黄色直播.
