Requirements

Applicants should hold a good bachelor's degree (Second Class Honours, Grade 2 or better; Grade Point Average (GPA) 2.48 or better) in mathematics, physics, statistics, engineering or other subject with a strong mathematical content.

Though previous training in meteorology is not required, the course is strongly quantitative, and a solid foundation in mathematics (including vector calculus, linear algebra and ordinary differential equations) and classical physics (including mechanics and thermodynamics) is essential. We recommend that applicants review the course material on the individual modules listed on the M.Sc. web page to get an idea of the level required.

As an example of the level of mathematics involved, sample notes from one lecture in the Dynamical Meteorology module, and one lecture in the Numerical Weather Prediction module are available for download here:
