Field Trip Information

School groups are welcome to visit the Department of Atmospheric Sciences and the Atmospheric Sciences-Geophysics Building for a tour of the facilities. In addition to the usual demonstrations and presentations, your students can also see real, live scientists at work, take a tour of our laboratories, and see some of the equipment on our building's roof.

Our building is indicated by the red circle on this map. Information for directions to the department and on-campus parking can be found here.

If your school is bringing visitors by bus, the driver will need to park the bus in a specific area as shown on this map. Visitors can be dropped off at the location denoted by the red square on the map, and the bus should be parked/wait in the areas with the blue dots.

There are also a number of other attractions for your students around campus if you want to spend more than an hour or two here. Be sure to call or Email ahead to make an appointment if you wish to tour these places as well as our department. These include:

Furthermore, if your students need a place to eat on campus, there are a number of cafeterias and meeting rooms around our building.
