Entirely renovated in 2000, the Meteorology Lab directly supports the Department of Geography's Program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Meteorology. The lab consists of PC's configured to access internet-based weather data and allow for instruction using CD-based multimedia modules. These meteorological training modules, developed by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, are used throughout the private sector and National Weather Service for further training and understanding of atmospheric processes. The Meteorology Laboratory contains a library of available modules.

Additionally, there is also connectivity available to faculty research workstations configured to run the Automated Weather Information Processing System (AWIPS) suite of programs in the UNIX environment for examining case studies and climatology development.

Finally, the lab is also equipped with cable television and direct access to The Weather Channel.
