Is the meteorological major unpopular?

Meteorology is a relatively unpopular major. Compared with the more popular engineering majors, such as computer, artificial intelligence and communication engineering, it is really unknown. Most students who apply for meteorology major are out of interest and strongly recommended by their families.

First, the employment prospects of applied meteorology:

This major has a good employment prospect, and can be engaged in information analysis and processing, resource development and utilization, disaster prevention and mitigation and other scientific research, teaching, business and other departments. The employment direction of applied meteorology is scientific research, teaching and business departments such as agrometeorology and ecological environment monitoring and control, information analysis and processing, resource development and utilization, disaster prevention and mitigation.

Employment direction of applied meteorology major:

Graduates can engage in scientific research, teaching and management related to meteorology, civil aviation, agriculture, environment, ocean and national defense in institutions, government agencies, universities and research institutes. For example: government and institutions: meteorological monitoring, environmental supervision of agricultural facilities, environmental protection, flood control and drought relief and agricultural disaster reduction; Ecological environment construction.

Second, the professional introduction of applied meteorology:

The major of applied meteorology requires students to have good scientific literacy and a solid foundation of atmospheric science, biological science and environmental science, and master the basic skills of developing and applying meteorological information service system, developing and utilizing climate resources, applying meteorological technology research in industrial engineering, adjusting and controlling ecological environment, and solving meteorological application problems in related fields.
