Penn State’s BS in Atmospheric Sciences trains students to study and predict atmospheric phenomena—from thunderstorms and hurricanes to long-term climate shifts. The program blends meteorology, physics, environmental modeling, and data analysis, preparing students for careers in weather forecasting, climate research, and environmental monitoring. Students work with state-of-the-art radar systems, satellite data, and high-performance computing to simulate weather systems and understand the atmospheric processes shaping our world.
