More information about the Climate Studies & Meteorology discipline

Climate and Meteorology is a discipline concerned with the study of atmosphere phenomena and focusing on climate processes, precipitation, temperature, currents, and electric discharge. It also aims at forecasting these phenomena and the changes or sequence between them. The activity in this field involves the research of climatology in terms of probing, analysing, evaluating and interpreting the meteorological data with the purpose of forecasting the weather and specific climatic conditions in the different geographical areas of the world. It is also preoccupied with the development of new meteorological theories and the improvement of existing ones, with the improvement of meteorological methods, techniques and instruments.

As a meteorologist you can practice your profession in government agencies, private consulting and research services, utilities and radio and television stations. A career in meteorological research can prove to be a very exciting endeavour as it can take the practitioner in some of the most unexplored and unknown places on Earth.

  • Master in Integrated Climate System Sciences

    The interdisciplinary Master`s program "IntegratedClimate System Sciences" is designed to meet the urgent need for experts with profound knowledge of the climate system. The program combines climate system sciences, such as meteorology, physical oceanography and biogeochemistry, and social and economic sciences as well as peace and conflict research.
