Alumni profiles

Did you know, 91滴滴's first Ph.D. graduate in Meteorology was in 1956 even though the University did not have a Department of Meteorology until 1959?

In 1955, the听University agreed to offer Ph.D. in Meteorology to students who were working on meteorology related topics in the department of Physics and Geography. And so, under such arrangement, Arthur Belmont,听under the supervision of Dr. Kenneth Hare who was a professor in Geography, was the听first Ph.D. graduate in Meteorology from 91滴滴. (You can read about Dr. Arthur Belmont's career here.)

Undergraduate curriculum was established soon after the formation of the听department in 1959.
