The Master of Science (MSc) in Atmospheric Environmental Science at KIMT University is designed to provide students with a deep understanding of atmospheric processes, climate change, air quality, and environmental sustainability. The program integrates advanced research methodologies, computational modeling, and field-based studies to address global environmental challenges.

The program prepares students for careers in environmental research, meteorology, climate policy, and atmospheric data analysis, equipping them with the skills necessary to analyze and mitigate environmental risks.

Upon successful completion of the program, graduates will be able to:

• Analyze atmospheric and climate systems using advanced scientific methods.
• Conduct research on air pollution, greenhouse gases, and climate variability.
• Develop environmental models and forecasting systems for climate and weather patterns.
• Utilize remote sensing and GIS for environmental monitoring and assessment.
• Assess the impact of human activities on air quality and atmospheric conditions.
• Formulate sustainable policies for environmental protection and climate resilience.
• Lead interdisciplinary research teams in addressing global climate challenges.

The MSc in Atmospheric Environmental Science program consists of 90 credits, divided into core courses and a thesis. Each course is worth 6 credits, while the thesis accounts for 12 credits. The course structure is as follows:
