CIP 40.0403 · CLASSIFICATION 2020
A program that focuses on the scientific study of the processes governing the interactions, movement, and behavior of atmospheric phenomena and related terrestrial and solar phenomena. Includes instruction in cloud and precipitation physics, solar radiation transfer, active and passive remote sensing, atmospheric electricity and acoustics, atmospheric wave phenomena, turbulence and boundary layers, solar wind, geomagnetic storms, coupling, natural plasma, and energization.
These institutions reported at least one first-major completion in this field in the connected reporting years ending 2024, 2022, 2021, 2020. This shows historical award activity, not a complete list of available programs or an assurance that a course is accepting applications.

CIP 40.0403 is a reporting classification. The official definition above explains its scope, while a university may use a different programme title. Related fields in classification family 40 can involve different curricula and award levels.
On the current institution website, record the exact degree title, campus, entry route, teaching language, curriculum and cycle. Compare those details with the classification definition before assuming that two similarly named degrees cover the same subject. For regulated professions, check the relevant licensing or recognition body's current requirements separately.
A positive award observation establishes historical activity in this classification. It does not confirm a current application opening, professional recognition, a specific delivery format or career outcome.
