Meteorology, Operational Meteorology Concentration, B.A.

Note:

Students may replace PHYS 105  with any three of the four senior-level courses (PHYS 405 , PHYS 415 , PHYS 459 , GEOL 438 ).  Replacing the introductory course with three senior-level courses may be desirable for students pursuing the Operational Meteorology Concentration. Also, if the three upper level courses are used to satisfy the base experience, two will also count as electives.

Note:

If both courses are taken, one will count as an elective.

Note:

*Topics in these courses must involve meteorology and must be approved by the meteorology program director and the department.

Option 1

• PHYS 420 Senior Research (3)

Option 2

• PHYS 499A Bachelor’s Essay (3)
• PHYS 499B Bachelor’s Essay (3)

Option 1

• PHYS 111 General Physics I (3)
• PHYS 111L General Physics I Lab (1)
• PHYS 112 General Physics II (3)
• PHYS 112L General Physics II Lab (1)

Option 2

A minimum grade of C- must be earned in each of the four courses for this option to satisfy the physics requirement. This option cannot be used for the Operational Meteorology Concentration.

• PHYS 101 Introductory Physics I (3)
• PHYS 101L Introductory Physics Laboratory (1)
• PHYS 102 Introductory Physics II (3)
• PHYS 102L Introductory Physics Laboratory (1)

Notes:

• Honors students can take the alternative course of HONS 115  in lieu of MATH 120 .
• Honors students can take the alternative course of HONS 217  in lieu of MATH 250 .

Notes:

• *Topics in these courses must involve meteorology and must be approved by the meteorology program director and the department.
• **If three upper level courses are used to satisfy the base experience, two will also count as electives.
• ***If not used to satisfy the Emphasis Experience requirement.
• Honors students can take the alternative sequence of HONS 159 /HONS 159L  in lieu of ASTR 129 /ASTR 129L . 
• Honors students can take the alternative course of HONS 190 /HONS 190L  in lieu of CHEM 111 /CHEM 111L  and CHEM 112 /CHEM 112L .
