Module handbook as PDF

The Master Course "Physics of the Earth and Atmosphere" is in cooperation with the University of Bonn

Proposed plan of study (starting with winter term)

 

Proposed plan of study (starting with summer term)

 

Compulsory modules for main focus

To specify the study the students have to complete 5 compulsory modules with main focus on geophysics or meteorology
 

Geophysics Meteorology
GEOEEM METABL
GEOAFC METCLOUD
GEOSEIS METCLIMATE
GEOSOSYS METADM
GEOSPACE METRAD

Abbreviations:

Sem: Semester
LP/CP: Leistungspunkte/Credit Points
G: Gewicht (weight)

The grade is calculated by multiplying each module grade with its weight and divide the sum of it by the sum of the weights (= 120).
