Bachelors in Atmospheric Science

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of California Davis

Program Overview

As Mark Twain said, Everyone complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. Atmospheric scientists may not be able to change the weather, but their research contributes to our understanding of weather patterns and phenomena and helps communities prepare for and respond to severe weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes and droughts. Additionally, atmospheric science addresses critical environmental issues such as air quality and pollution. As an atmospheric science major at UC Davis, you will work with recognized experts in the field as you develop an understanding of the roles our atmosphere plays in making Earth a habitable planet.
