Career In Meteorology

What could I do with a Bachelors Degree in Atmospheric Science?

I'm considering majoring in this, but I've been told it takes a few years to get a job as a meteorologist. I was wondering, what would I do with this degree besides meteorology. This is really important, so thanks. Well are you saying I should not major in this then? I live near the Mount Holly NWS

1. You could attach it to two crossed sticks and some string and make a nice kite with it.:) Job prospects. Atmospheric scientists should have favorable job prospects, as the number of graduates is expected to be in rough balance with the number of openings. Opportunities in broadcasting are rare and there will be very few job openings in this industry. Openings for academic and government positions should result primarily from replacement needs as older workers retire or leave the occupation for other reasons.
