SOARS Webinar: Career Panel in the Atmospheric Sciences

UCAR's Significant Opportunities in Atmospheric Research and Science (SOARS) program offers webinars on careers and grad school in the atmospheric and related sciences. The webinars are geared towards undergraduate students, grad students, and faculty who support students in career development.

At 2:00pm MST on February 12, 2015, the program will host a webinar titled "Career panel in the atmospheric sciences." The panel includes three atmospheric science graduates whose career paths have led to very different places — a weather anchorman from WKYC-TV3 in Cleveland, a research scientist at NCAR, and a manager at the National Disaster Preparedness Training Center at the University of Hawaii. Join the free webinar to hear about their jobs and career paths, and to ask them any questions you might have about careers in the atmospheric sciences.

The panelists are:

• Marcus Walter, the weather anchor for the morning broadcast at WKYC-TV3 - Cleveland, OH.
• Dr. Luna Rodriguez,an Associate Scientist in the Research Applications Laboratory at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) located in Boulder, CO.
• Meteorologist Owen Shieh, the Weather and Climate Program Manager at the National Disaster Preparedness Training Center (NDPTC) in Honolulu, Hawaii.
