Third, the employment direction:

Graduates majoring in meteorological technology and engineering can work in meteorological bureau, civil aviation air traffic control department, high-end meteorological equipment manufacturing enterprises and emerging Internet service industries. You can also apply for the Beijing Meteorological Bureau, China Meteorological Bureau Emergency Disaster Reduction and Public Service Department and other national civil service units.

Practical application of meteorological technology and engineering;

1, weather radar technology:

Meteorological radar technology is an important meteorological detection method, which can detect and quantitatively analyze weather phenomena such as precipitation, clouds and fog in the atmosphere. Through the processing and analysis of radar reflection signal, we can get information such as precipitation intensity, cloud height and wind field, which provides important data support for meteorological forecast.

2, satellite remote sensing technology:

Satellite remote sensing technology is a non-contact remote sensing method, which can realize the observation and monitoring of large-scale weather. Through the processing and analysis of satellite images, cloud images, temperature fields, wind fields and other information can be obtained, which provides comprehensive and accurate data support for meteorological forecast.

3. Numerical model prediction technology;

Numerical model forecasting technology is a kind of forecasting method based on physical principle and mathematical model, which simulates the law of atmospheric motion by computer to forecast the weather. This method has the advantages of high reliability and precision, and has become one of the main weather forecasting methods in the world in recent years.
