大气科学理学硕士

大气和海洋科学以及气候研究都建立在物理学，数学，生物学和化学的基本原理之上。“大气，海洋和气候计划”（简称“ PAOC”）涉及许多科学学科，包括动力学和化学海洋学，生物地球化学，大气动力学和化学以及地球化学。在所有领域，PAOC都强调理论，观察和建模方法的综合。大气科学计划强调一种涉及理论，建模，实验和数据分析的综合方法。研究领域包括大气动力学，天气气象学，大气对流，中层大气动力学，热带气象学，大气化学和大气辐射。由于其跨学科的性质，该计划通常包括数学和/或化学研究。最近的研究领域包括臭氧洞，飓风的动力学
The Atmospheric Sciences Program (ASP) is designed to provide students with a basic foundation in the physical principles, theory, methodological skills, and applications central to the disciplines of meteorology and climatology. We seek to produce scholars and scientists able to perform academic research work of the highest quality. Graduate students are central to the Program's scholarly and scientific community, their research and teaching contributions are central to our mission. Overall, these goals are reflected in the graduate program's broad programmatic objectives: To bring graduate students rapidly and fully into the collegial, scholarly, scientific, and teaching life of the Geography Department, the ASP, and the University, To provide a common foundation for graduate research in atmospheric sciences, To provide a variety of courses to meet student research and training needs, and to support student efforts to find relevant courses outside the department, To offer opportunities for students to become familiar with current research within the atmospheric sciences, To encourage students to engage in academic research presentations and critique and To support as far as possible the financial needs of graduate students through a variety of teaching and research assistantships, fellowships, and other mechanisms. The ASP is designed to develop outstanding thinkers and to lay the foundation for rewarding careers. OSU Geography/Atmospheric Sciences has a long history of preparing students for diverse jobs in academia/education, government, the private sector, and non-profits. Master's graduates in particular have found that their intellectual and technical training in our department leads to fulfilling careers in multiple fields
