Given the impacts of climate change, we provide students with in-depth knowledge of the atmosphere, to prepare them for careers in atmospheric science like fire weather, climate risk, and AI modeling. Our advantage is our classroom sizes are small, and students get hands-on learning. Students are often paid to do cutting-edge research on wildfire and climate science, weather, and forecasting. Our department’s collaborations include NASA, NBC, Cal Fire, and National Science Laboratories. Our professors ensure a diverse learning environment that significantly impacts our students’ careers.
