Saint Louis University's master's degree in meteorology is geared to students who plan to enter SLU's meteorology doctoral program after completion. It is also a good fit for students who want to work in a research capacity or enhance their qualifications for forecasting positions.SLU's meteorology program collaborates with research and operational meteorologists at national centers and the St. Louis National Weather Service forecast offices.Curriculum OverviewMeteorology master's students at SLU study the dynamics of air motion; physical processes such as transfer of radiation; and convection resulting in severe storms, flash floods and hurricanes. The Master of Science in Meteorology requires 24 credits of coursework and six credits of thesis research. Meteorology research is underway at SLU on heavy precipitation, regional climate and air quality using numerical weather prediction models.
