Ringkasan program

This program is a relatively small, high quality program. Faculty members do not have large numbers of graduate students, and this provides students with the opportunity to work closely with their advisor. This individual attention is combined with the advantages of a large and diverse research university, and the beautiful, livable environment of Ithaca. This program offers full financial support, including tuition, stipend, and health insurance, to all students accepted into our program. This means that we sometimes must decline applications from students who are very well qualified, but for whom they cannot identify support because the student’s interests are not a good match for the research programs. These are exciting times in the field of Atmospheric Science. It is a time of rapid growth, increased public awareness, and social relevance for our field. Atmospheric Science is a broad discipline that applies mathematics and the basic sciences to understand a very complex natural system. The scope of the field ranges from the small space and time scales of turbulent phenomena, through the diagnosis and prediction of weather events in meteorology, to continental and global scale climate change processes.
