Atmospheric science training courses
We believe that developing the next generation of atmospheric scientists is the best way to ensure that excellent atmospheric science can happen in the future. Build your place within the atmospheric science community by developing skills and knowledge with our training courses. We can help you to reach your goal.
The fundamentals
Our introductory courses are tailored towards students who are just starting out in atmospheric science or who would value the opportunity to broaden background skills and knowledge.
Explore our Introduction to Atmospheric Science and Introduction to Scientific Computing.
Making measurements
Our practical courses are essential for those involved in fieldwork or laboratory based science, and will benefit anyone who works with observational data. These courses will provide a strong background in the skills needed to design and carry out experiments, and collect valuable data.
Explore our Atmospheric Measurement Summer School and Practical Aerosol Science.
Modelling
Our modelling courses provide skills for students and scientists who want to get the most out of atmospheric computer models. We have specialist courses that look at specific models in detail, taught by researchers who use and develop the code as part of their everyday work.
Explore our Climate Modelling Summer School, Introduction to the UKCA, Introduction to the Unified Model and WRF Users Tutorial.
