The Department of Climatology
 
The discipline of climatology is increasingly recognized as a distinct scientific field, focusing on the analysis of long-term average weather conditions, in contrast to meteorology, which investigates atmospheric processes over shorter time frames. Current research aims to identify trends and frequencies in weather patterns and phenomena. Climatologists within the Department explore both micro (local) and macro (regional) climates, along with their natural and hydrological influences. This field is further divided into subcategories, including hydroclimates and agroclimates of various regions, as well as the examination of specific phenomena across different temporal scales. Key components of research and training in this Department include synoptic studies, as well as studies utilizing radar, remote sensing (RS), and geographic information systems (GIS).

PhD Opportunities

The Department of Planning, recognized for its aspiration to contribute to academic and policy discussions at the national level, seeks to attract dedicated students who are interested in engaging in innovative and advanced research at the Ph.D. level. Established in 1998, the Ph.D. program has seen a steady increase in the number of postgraduate students over the years.


Master Program
The department runs a master program since 1993 which provides professional and academic through a variety of routes specializing in climatic issues.

Undergraduate Program

The Department provides a Bachelor of Arts in climatology. This program enhances the existing strengths of climatology courses while enabling students to explore a broader spectrum of geographical topics. It familiarizes students with key climatological and environmental trends that influence both natural and anthropogenic climates globally. Additionally, it fosters theoretical and conceptual thinking while equipping students with a diverse set of practical skills. This integration prepares graduates for a wide array of career opportunities.
