What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: proficient (Level 3)(based on Post-Baccalaureate Certificate)

  • Advanced graduate seminars on topics such as atmospheric dynamics or space science instrumentation — design and deliver autonomously, incorporating current research findings.
  • Comprehensive assessment systems including examinations, projects, and participation rubrics — develop and implement independently across undergraduate and graduate course portfolios.
  • Multidisciplinary course curricula — plan, evaluate, and revise systematically to align with program learning outcomes and accreditation standards in a research university.
  • Field research experiences and capstone laboratory projects — supervise, guiding students through hypothesis formation, data collection, and scientific writing in authentic scientific environments.
  • Complex student performance data — analyze using monitoring and judgment skills to identify at-risk learners and implement targeted instructional interventions.
  • Graduate student research papers and theses — evaluate with expert critical thinking, providing detailed disciplinary feedback to support scholarly development in earth or space sciences.
  • Novel instructional approaches using geographic information systems, map creation software, and analytical platforms — integrate to solve non-routine pedagogical challenges in postsecondary science education.
  • Interdisciplinary course content bridging physics, chemistry, and geography — synthesize and communicate with oral clarity and written precision to diverse student audiences.
  • Department course offerings and instructional methods — systematically evaluate through systems analysis to identify gaps and recommend evidence-based improvements.
  • Collaborative classroom environments — cultivate by modeling scientific reasoning, active listening, and social perceptiveness in graduate and undergraduate discussions on atmospheric or marine science.
