MSc Applied Meteorology and Climate with Management
Combine the study of meteorology and climate science with management training on our MSc Applied Meteorology and Climate with Management.
This course will provide you the scientific background for improved understanding of meteorology and climate. It will also prepare you for current – or future – managerial responsibilities, with a significant course focus on the management of people and organisations.
Whether you want to mitigate the economic impact of hazardous weather events, look further afield and forecast space weather, or focus your efforts elsewhere within meteorology’s broad spectrum, we will help you develop the scientific and managerial skills you need.
Choosing MSc Applied Meteorology and Climate with Management means your interdisciplinary learning will be split between our world-class Department of Meteorology – the University of Reading is ranked 4th in the world for Atmospheric Science (ShanghaiRanking 2022 Global Ranking of Academic Subjects) – and the triple-accredited Henley Business School.
Accreditation
This course is approved by the Royal Meteorological Society (RMetS) and is your first step towards becoming professionally accredited as either a Registered Meteorologist (RMet) or Chartered Meteorologist (CMet).
Your learning environment
Many of your modules will be shared with MSc Applied Meteorology, while others will complement your scientific studies with a focus on management and leadership.
As you develop your skills in forecasting, weather analysis and statistics, your learning will be supported by:
You will be taught by academics who are leaders in their fields. They will draw on their research experience to give you unique scientific perspectives into environmental issues that affect our world. Additionally, our Department of Meteorology is home to five Fellows of the Royal Society, as well as climate experts who contribute to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Your master’s dissertation is an opportunity to further our knowledge of meteorological science and research.
This allows you to:
You may also have the opportunity to work on a research project in collaboration with one of our industry partners.
We are proud of our long-established relationships with more than 30 organisations in the meteorological, climate and related sectors. These include:
As part of your studies, you will have the opportunity to participate in field work that focuses on observing and predicting typical weather systems in the mid-latitudes.
Over the course of a weekend, you will understand how and why the weather varies in a particular region by building a coherent picture of its evolution. You will do this by:
This master’s course is designed for graduates with maths or physics backgrounds, or graduates who have studied subjects such as chemistry or computer science.
Many of our students already work in national weather services and wish to develop further knowledge in meteorological science and management.
