Undergraduate Research Advisors | GMU College of Science

CLIM 408 Senior Research consists of student research, under the direction of a faculty member, in atmospheric science, physical oceanography, climate dynamics, or a related field. Students are encouraged to go to faculty web pages (click on individual instructor names below) or the department research pages to learn more about individual research interests of faculty members.

Once a student has identified a potential advisor, the student should email the professor to schedule an appointment to discuss a possible research project.
