CSE Option in Atmospheric Sciences
CSE Option in Atmospheric Sciences
The Department of Atmospheric Sciences (ATMS) offers CSE Options in both the M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs. Students electing the CSE Option for either degree program are expected to satisfy all regular requirements for graduate study in ATMS. A student will normally be able to satisfy the requirements for the CSE Option by taking elective courses within the ATMS graduate programs.
M.S. Program
For the M.S. in ATMS with the CSE Option, the following additional requirements must be satisfied: four hours of course work must be from CSE core courses, and four additional hours of course work must be from an approved list of CSE courses. The M.S. thesis, if any, must have a significant computational component.
Ph.D. Program
For the Ph.D. in ATMS with the CSE Option, the following additional requirements must be satisfied: eight hours of course work must be from CSE core courses, and eight additional hours of course work must be from an approved list of CSE courses. The Ph.D. thesis must have a significant computational component, and the thesis committee must include at least one CSE-affiliated faculty member from a department other than ATMS.
