About Us
![]() |
The meteorology program is housed within the Department of Geology, which is part of the College of Science and Technology. Prior to the development of the Bachelor of Science degree in Meteorology in the Fall of 2006, students could receive a Geography degree with a concentration in Meteorology. The program consists of three full-time and one adjunct faculty, who all possess Ph.D. degrees in Meteorology. We currently have approximately 80 meteorology majors enrolled in the program. |
- The faculty is committed to excellence in undergraduate education and research, combined with maintaining a national presence within the forecasting and research communities.
- We provide a student-focused approach to both academic and career advising.
- Class sizes within the major are typically less than 20, allowing for one-on-one interaction.
- The program allows students to work with state-of-the-art software packages within an instructional laboratory dedicated to meteorology.
- Students have many opportunities for internships with the National Weather Service, private weather companies, and television stations throughout Michigan and the United States.
