ATMOSPHERIC AND NEAR SPACE SCIENCES

The goal of the program is to prepare a new generation of researchers who will:

• have in-depth and systematic knowledge of atmospheric and near space sciences;
• apply relevant methods, databases and software for observational and/or theoretical studies of the atmosphere and near space in research and practical activities;
• operate with modern equipment, including those used in global monitoring networks.

Graduates of the program will be competitive in both the employment market and the postgraduate level.

Graduate

1. demonstrates deep and complex theoretical and experimental knowledge about the structures of the atmospheres of the solar system planets and the processes taking place in the atmosphere;
2. demonstrates a complex knowledge of the approaches and principles required for research related to the Earth's atmosphere by modern satellite and global international networks;
3. Based on research objectives and selected methods uses and optimizes global circulation models of the Earth's atmosphere;
4. Selects and applies appropriate modern methods, approaches and theoretical models to effectively carry out theoretical and/or observational research in the field of atmospheric science;
5. Observes principles of academic integrity and employs information technologies for effective communication with an academic community and professional audience;
6. performs as an independent learner and demonstrates own scientific attitude.
