    Degrees Europe
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking advice for pursuing a Master's degree in Climate or Environmental Physics after completing a BSc in Physics. The individual is looking for programs that emphasize experimental work, simulation, and data analysis, ideally in countries with low or no fees for EU students. Areas of interest include oceanography, glaciology, atmospheric physics, pollution models, climate change, and satellite-based Earth observation. The desire for field trips and research expeditions as part of the thesis is also highlighted, along with an interest in programs that incorporate policy-making or economics courses. The individual is overwhelmed by the number of available programs and seeks personal recommendations from alumni or those with firsthand experience to help choose a suitable institution. Additionally, a suggestion is made to consider the Royal Society in the UK and the Open University for affordable options.

Hello,

I am about to complete my BSc in Physics and I'd like to pursue a MSc in a field related to Climate or Environmental Physics.
I'd like it to be a mainly experimental curriculum with a decent amount of simulation/data analysis and to be in a country with none to low fees for EU students (*not necessarily in Europe).
I think I'd like anything related to oceanography, glaciology, physics of the atmosphere, planetary physics, pollution models, climate change, satellite-based Earth observation.
I'd also like to do some field trips and a research expedition as a part of the master's thesis.

I also consider as a pro the presence of policy making or economics related courses in the program or as extra-curricular activities.

Googling I found even too many programs of this kind offered, therefore I'd like a more personal advice, from alumni or anything close to first-hand experience, as too choose a good institution.

I speak English and German apart from my mother tongue.

Thanks in advance

The Royal Society (UK) and the universities it recommends, and the Open University (for some distance-learning courses that are much more affordable than Lehigh University's; and for some campus laboratories in the summer time), before suscribing in a Msc at a university in England. The RS, whose I was a donator$, is the most credible & reputated learned society in the world. I have participated in its Internet forum in 1995 with 10 opinions. Nevertheless I believe that late Isaac Newton and some helpers, plagiarized the german inventor of calculus.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
