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
- 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;
- 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;
- Based on research objectives and selected methods uses and optimizes global circulation models of the Earth's atmosphere;
- 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;
- Observes principles of academic integrity and employs information technologies for effective communication with an academic community and professional audience;
- performs as an independent learner and demonstrates own scientific attitude.
