Atmospheric Science and Physics is a joint program administered by the Department of Physics and the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences. It examines the physical processes that produce weather and climate, including short- and long-range weather and climate prediction, severe weather, climate variability, the ozone hole, and air-sea interactions, with attention to global warming and air quality. Atmospheric processes are studied primarily through the lens of physics, covering topics such as how water condenses into precipitation, how radiative heating of the ground and atmosphere occurs, and how the atmosphere and ocean interact to shape weather and climate systems. Students complete coursework spanning both physics and atmospheric science, gaining a combined understanding of how the two disciplines connect. Graduates are prepared for further study or careers in meteorology, climate science, and other physical sciences fields that require a joint background in physics and atmospheric processes.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Applicants apply through the Faculty of Science in the Physical, Earth, Math and Computer Sciences group; the program page sets no admission criteria of its own. McGill's admission requirements vary by educational background (Quebec CEGEP or high school, Ontario high school, other Canadian high school, U.S. high school, international curricula, home-schooling, university transfer, or mature-student status); grades equal to or above the published minimums do not guarantee admission, and the review may consider the complete academic record. English proficiency is required unless exempt: IELTS Academic 6.5 with no component below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 90, Duolingo English Test 125, PTE Academic 65, or CAEL 70.
