气象科学试图通过考虑作用在大气层上的力，决定其行为的过程以及大气层与地下地球之间的相互作用来了解大气层及其现象。该计划提供了广泛的气象学背景，并强调了对气象数据的实际解释以及气象学对人类努力的许多方面的重要性。气象方面的重点为科学打下了基础，为学生提供研究生学习的准备，并提供了准备从事天气预报工作所需的经验。课程要求确保我们的毕业生符合美国气象学会（AMS）和国家气象协会（NWA）的所有认证要求。
The science of meteorology seeks to understand the atmosphere and its phenomena by considering the forces that act on it, the processes that determine its behavior and the interaction between it and the earth beneath. This program provides a broad background in meteorology and stresses practical interpretation of weather data and the importance of meteorology to many aspects of human endeavor. The meteorology emphasis builds a foundation in the sciences that prepares students for graduate school and provides the experience necessary to be ready to take a job in weather forecasting. Course requirements assure that our graduates meet all of the requirements for certification with the American Meteorology Society (AMS) and the National Weather Association (NWA).
