Field of Study:
$9,660 /Yr
- Solid foundation: The Earth Sciences Department houses a meteorology lab, which is equipped with 22 dual-boot Windows/Linux computers with interactive meteorological software and visualization programs to enhance student research and learning. This lab also has a live feed to Unidata for real-time meteorological analyses to improve student forecasting skills. Meteorology students have access to a state-of-the-art broadcast studio with multiple digital cameras, chroma key and production equipment to develop their skills in broadcast meteorology. The digital studio also features a 70-inch touchscreen AccuWeather StoryTeller system, which uses numerous on-air apps, such as StormDirector+, woven into the platform. Students are able to broadcast live via Periscope and Facebook Live, as well as share content with our campus television station, CUTV. We also offer six meteorology courses with labs in which students gain hands-on experiences.
- Career edge: Meteorology majors can get practical experience in numerous ways. Students interested in broadcast meteorology participate in internships, available at numerous TV stations. Some students choose stations close to their home during their summer, but Cal U also has excellent connections for internships at Pittsburgh TV stations. Students interested in forecasting can intern with the Pittsburgh office of the National Weather Service (NWS). Meteorology majors who want to go on to graduate school can take advantage of Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) programs, including internships at such federal agencies as the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) in Norman, Okla., and the National Hurricane Center (NHC) in Miami, Fla.
