Students at Marshall Mesa installing a weather instrument.

Join us at MSU Denver to earn your meteorology degree!  The Professional Meteorology concentration fulfills all the U.S. federal government civil service requirements for classification as a meteorologist and the American Meteorological Society‘s recommendations for undergraduate meteorology programs.  Students can now choose an Applied Meteorology concentration that has more flexibility within the curriculum. Both concentrations share a common core.  Students who are unsure should default to the professional concentration to start!
