This certificate program is designed to meet the demand for atmospheric scientists with post-graduate education in:

• computational analysis/analytics of weather and climate data
• implementation and use of predictive models for the weather-climate interface
• assessment of weather- and climate-related risk

This particular skill set is different than, but complementary to that of traditional weather forecasting, and is particularly desirable in the private sector, which is the fastest-growing employment sector in the atmospheric sciences. Students completing the online Graduate Certificate in Weather and Climate Risk and Data Analytics must complete three courses, totaling 12 credit hours.
