The Bachelor of Science Advanced Honours (Atmospheric Science) degree at UOW is for high-achieving students interested in a challenging program leading to a career in scientific research.
Progress in atmospheric science relies heavily on analysing data produced by satellite-borne and other types of instruments designed by physicists.
Atmospheric scientists need a broad scientific basis as well as experience in computing.
With the growing field of climate science and the increasing demand for tools and instruments to predict and monitor the environment, atmospheric scientists contribute to innovations in designing and prototyping mechanisms.
They are also involved in the analysis and interpretation of data.
The Bachelor of Science Advanced Honours (Atmospheric Science) requires completion of subjects in physics, mathematics, chemistry, earth and environmental science and statistics.
You will also study specialist subjects in remote sensing and the physics of atmospheric processes.
You will participate in various enrichment activities and develop a close association with an appropriate member of one of the Faculty’s research teams.
This degree will suit students with both an aptitude for physics and mathematics and a broad interest in science.
The University of Wollongong collaborates widely with Australian and international atmospheric science communities, including other universities, CSIRO, ANSTO, the Bureau of Meteorology, federal and state government departments and global networks.
