Bachelor of Science [B.S] Atmospheric and Oceanic Science

  • There are many advantages to studying atmospheric and oceanic science at the University of Maryland, such as small class sizes, outstanding teachers and very talented classmates. Maryland is a large university, but we are a smaller community within it, so you get the advantages of the diversity of a large university with the close-knit relationships in a smaller department. We also believe that some of the most important science education occurs outside the classroom, and we require all of our majors to participate in cutting-edge research with our internationally recognized faculty or an internship or research project outside the department.
  • Through participation in research projects, our students learn what it takes to conduct world-class scientific research and decide whether they have the passion to pursue this career path. Whether you decide to continue to study atmospheric and oceanic science in graduate school or work in fields such as engineering, software development, law, business or education, a bachelor's degree in atmospheric and oceanic science from the University of Maryland provides an excellent foundation. Our very talented undergraduates have a passion for atmospheric and oceanic science that helps create a dynamic and collegial atmosphere in which to study, but they have a wide variety of interests and talents in many other areas, including music, sports, art and theater.
