Opportunities for Graduate Study in Atmospheric Science at the University of Kansas
We have numerous immediate opportunities for graduate study in Atmospheric Science at the University of Kansas starting Fall Semester 2013. The course of study leads to an M.S. in Atmospheric Science or a Ph.D. in Geography. Qualified applicants will be considered for financial support in the form of teaching or research assistantships.
Our faculty and students are active in the following areas of research:
- land-atmosphere interactions
- regional climate modeling
- urban climate modeling
- ecohydrology
- boundary-layer meteorology
- cloud dynamics and microphysics
- mesoscale processes
- dynamics and mass balance of ice sheets and glaciers
Our research employ a combination of in-situ observations, surface- and satellite-based remote sensing techniques, and numerical simulations.
Specific research projects undertaken by current faculty and students may be found at the following links:
