University of Oklahoma School of Meteorology MS In Professional Meteorology Degree Program

During the past decade, the private sector has experienced rapid and sustained growth as both a provider and consumer of weather information and technology. To provide its students a unique opportunity to prepare for rewarding careers in private industry, or in organizations whose mission is directed primarily toward customer service and/or product development, the School of Meteorology at the University of Oklahoma has established the Master of Science in Professional Meteorology (MSPM) Degree Program. Similar in concept to an MBA, the MSPM Program allows students to focus on a specific area of meteorology as well as earn graduate credit in a secondary area such as business, computer science, finance, communications, economics, public policy, public relations, and marketing.
