[QUOTE="BOOGIE MAN, post: 15925693, member: 26082"] FSU's met program currently goes above and beyond industry standards for a bachelor's degree (that's why a masters takes 3yrs instead of 2yrs for anyone coming without a met bachelor's from fsu) Standard AA/AS prereqs Engineering level math up through calc 1-3 and ordinary differential equations, statistics for bachelor's. Upper level statistics and partial differential equations for masters Calc based physics 1 and 2 with labs, chem 1 (and 2 iirc) with labs Forecasting Climatology ("the climate is your personality, the weather is your mood") "Meteorological computations" - a programming course (Python) "The Big 3" (6 really) 1 atmospheric physics 1 and 2 (oversimplification 1 - how to make a cloud, 2 - how atmosphere gets/spends energy and how we measure things in atmosphere with satellites) 2 Atmospheric dynamics 1 and 2 (derivation and manipulation of meteorological equations and how they define our "laws" of which there are tons and they change depending on what scale you're looking at). There's a million dollar reward for anyone that can solve the governing equation of meteorology...
