While meteorologists can fully explore the wide range of career opportunities only after earning a master's degree and completing a doctorate, the academic degree "Bachelor of Science" already serves as an internationally recognized, career-qualifying degree. It demonstrates a graduate's ability to apply scientific methods from the natural sciences in professional practice. Throughout the program, students gain valuable additional qualifications, such as advanced analytical skills, teamwork, presentation techniques, computer-assisted data processing, and much more. As a result, meteorologists are consistently in demand across the economy, industry, and public sector.
Typical career fields include:
- German Weather Service and private weather services
- Environmental agencies

- Public administration
- Management
- Banking and finance
- Systems analysis
- Data processing and analysis
- Patents system
