The Institute of Atmospheric Sciences studies the physical, chemical, and biological processes that affect the composition and dynamics of the atmosphere. Research is directly linked to an undergraduate and graduate program (see the Department of Atmospheric Sciences) that provides a fundamental understanding of the atmosphere, and opportunities for applied research, theoretical research, and technical training to prepare students for careers in meteorology, atmospheric science, remote sensing and environmental technology.

 

The National Weather Service and SDSM&T will Co-host the 13th Annual Northern Plains Weather Workshop 7-8 April 2009, Rapid City, SD

Graduate Research Opportunity in Wetland Ecology
at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology

The Department of Atmospheric Science at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology announces the availability of a new Graduate Assistantship for a Ph.D. candidate interested in research and study in biogeochemistry and global environmental change.  Interested students are strongly encouraged to contact Dr. P.V. Sundareshwar, at the earliest to discuss this opportunity further. Admission into the Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences Ph.D. degree program at SDSM&T is required. For more specific details, visit http://www.ias.sdsmt.edu/GRA-wetland-ecology.htm.
