Society urgently needs experts with a multidisciplinary education in atmospheric and Earth System sciences. Climate change, urban air quality and extreme weather are matters of global concern which science cannot yet completely explain. Thus, more scientific research needs to be made. Environmental specialists are also needed in companies ranging from clean technology to energy and insurance, as well as among policy makers and governments. ATM-MP educates all meteorologists in Finland for weather forecasting, meteorological research and aviation safety. We also educate hydrospheric geophysicists to work in the fields of cryology, hydrology and oceanography, and chemists and aerosol physicists to work in companies.

Upon graduating from the Programme you will have competence in

• Applying experimental, computational and statistical methods to obtain and analyse atmospheric and environmental data
• Knowledge applicable to solving global challenges such as climate change, air pollution, deforestation and issues related to water resources and eutrophication
• Making systematic and innovative use of investigation or experimentation to discover new knowledge
• Reporting results in a clear and logical manner

The Atmospheric Sciences is offered by the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Agruculture and Forestry.
