Meteorology is a joint program between the College <strong>of</strong> Engineering,<br />
College <strong>of</strong> Science and College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics, administered by the<br />
environmental sciences program. A related degree program in aviation<br />
meteorology is <strong>of</strong>fered by the College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics.<br />
Candidates for a bachelor’s degree in meteorology complete a minimum<br />
<strong>of</strong> 133 credit hours as outlined below. A student completing<br />
at least 24 credit hours including MET 3401, MET 3402, MET<br />
4233, MET 4305, MET 4306, SPS 4030, and six credit hours<br />
from among AVS 3201, ENS 3101, MET 4310 and OCN 3401,<br />
is eligible to be certified as a pr<strong>of</strong>essional meteorologist by the<br />
American Meteorological Society and the U.S. Office <strong>of</strong> Personnel<br />
Management, and is thus qualified for entry into positions in NOAA<br />
National Weather Service, NASA and the U.S. Armed Forces.<br />
