Hello everyone! I'm currently at the 3rd year of Physics course. Hopefully I'll take my bachelor in 1-2 years and I'm thinking of applying for a Master course in Meteorology. In the next semester I'm taking the "Environment and Atmosphere" major which is relevant to the master I'm interested. So, I wanted to know which British university is best for meteorology or climate. Does anyone have a clue?
I've found on the net some courses in Reading, Plymouth, Birmingham and Exeter University. By now I'm studying in the Aristotle university Thessaloniki, in Greece.
Thanks you :)
