By completing our Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences curriculum, you'll graduate prepared for a wide range of meteorology-related careers. The program provides requirements for those seeking entrance into the National Weather Service (NWS), private forecasting industry, and graduate school. Our unique coastal location offers the opportunity to study coastal weather phenomena, such as hurricanes, nor-easters, and sea-breezes, as well as regional climate change in a coastal-urban environment.

As a non-restricted major, there are no additional admission requirements for this program. Please review the general admission criteria related to how you are applying.
Your college decision isn't really about the next four years. We get it. It’s about what doors are opened by your degree and whether those opportunities are what you had envisioned for yourself. Nearly 95% of SBU grads are employed or go to professional or graduate school. Here's a snapshot of what life after graduation looks like for some of them.
