Are research opportunities more favorable to climatology or meteorology if I pursue a degree in Atmospheric Science?

I would like to be a meteorologist although I’m not sure if I’m leaning towards being the weather person on a local news station or forecaster behind the scenes. I would like to participate in research study and long-term predictions and am wondering if I could be more successful as a climatologist, perhaps in a governmental or environmental agency. #Weather #AtmosphericScience #ILoveScience #Meteorology #Climatology #science

How do I know if my degree of choice is too difficult?

I am interested in studying meteorology in college. This is my senior year of high school and I am taking physics and calculus to prepare for the meteorology degree. However, I feel like I am struggling in calculus. I'm passing, but I realize that harder courses are coming, and they may prove to be too difficult. I really want to study the weather, and I really enjoy calculus, when I understand it. #college #difficult #calculus #ap-calculus #meteorology #meteorologist #weather #degree

Should I go into Meteorology?

I have attended Penn State's Advanced Weather Camp two years in a row, and I'm not sure if the field of Meteorology is for me. I love learning about weather and natural disasters, but almost every career requires being at a desk all day which I don't want to do. Should I still go into this field or find a better suited one? #science #meteorology

Will studying Physics help me better understand the study of Atmospheric Science?

I've always wanted to study Atmospheric Science and get my masters in that degree, but my parents says it is smarter to get a degree in Physics first, then transfer to Atmospheric Science. Is this a smart move or will it be a waste of time? Is there another degree I could take to help my study of Atmospheric Science? #science #college-major #physics #meteorology #atmospheric-science
