<p>I want to become a meteorologist and I have already applied to many of the colleges that have great meteorology programs. But I'm having a hard time finding information about the programs all together. There isn't any ranking websites that rank meteorology colleges, and there just simply isn't a lot of information on it. What makes PSU better than the rest? Any personal experience or information will really help me make my decision.</p>
<p>I’m having the same problem finding information too. I want to become a meteorologist too and there’s like, no websites or anything that ranks colleges on how well it is. I hear from a lot of people that Penn State has a really good program so I hope I get in there. I’m still waiting to hear</p>
<p>From what I’ve learned from the internet and from meteorologists, Penn State has a great undergraduate and graduate program in meteorology whereas many other colleges like Lyndon State College and Millersville only have a strong undergraduate meteorology program. The fact that Penn State is well known makes it more credible and it may work in your advantage to have a Penn State meteorology degree and work at NOAA. Penn State also has every kind of meteorology you could specialize in like mesoscale meteorology or tropical meteorology and also offers a meteorology minor. I would think those are some advantages of Penn State meteo program over some smaller meteo programs at Lyndon State and the like. I believe Penn State’s meteo program is well established before the other programs came along.</p>
<p>I want to pursue meteorology as well.</p>
<p>I have some friends in the program and they seem to think it’s pretty good. There’s been some negative press lately, though, because one of the professors here (Michael Mann) was heavily involved in the Climategate e-mails.</p>
