Meteorology Personal Statement

I chose to major in Earth Sciences because of my passion for meteorology, astronomy, and geology. From a young age I realized I was interested in the weather and wanted to learn as much as I could about it. My interest in astronomy and geology did not begin until my 11th and 12th grade years of high school. It was when I took classes over them that I realized I am interested in them too. Although my interest in astronomy and geology only started recently I am no less dedicated to learning about them as I am with meteorology. I hope that once at college I will be able to learn all I can about these three subjects that significantly interest me.
Around the time I was ten I started realize my curiosity for the weather. But at first it wasn’t always that way. I used to be terrified of storms and would try to “hide” from them and refuse to come out until they were done. It was only when I started to realize that a simple thunderstorm couldn’t harm me did I become curious about them. Also, my mother was a very large influence for my interest in the weather.

Meteorology is something I realized I was fascinated by at an early age. Astronomy only became an interest after I took a class over it and realized how absorbing space can be. Geology was something I never could have imagined myself being interested in until I realized just how enthralling it really is. If I had never taken the classes my school offers for astronomy and geology and never would have discovered my fascination for them. I thought that I would have to choose between only one of them to study about so when I discovered UNI’s earth science program I was delighted because it provides me with the perfect opportunity to study all of them at once. I hope that I will easily be able to find a career that allows me to incorporate all of my
