Faculty research areas include infrared, visible and ultraviolet measurements of gases and aerosols in the atmosphere using both passive and active remote sensing systems. Tenured and tenure-track faculty are science team members on a number of NASA and NOAA missions including AIRS, CALIPSO, GLORY, MODIS, and GOES-R. Instrument specializations of the faculty include atmospheric lidar, infrared spectroscopy, and fundamental aerosol microphysical techniques. The research in the atmospheric physics group also includes some new efforts in the areas of hurricane modeling and modeling of low-level winds with applications to PBL/pollution studies.

UMBC also has recently been recognized as being the #3 university in the country from 2001-2006 in terms of citations in the geosciences. The UMBC Atmospheric Physics program has contributed significantly to that recognition.In addition to 5 tenured/tenure-track faculty, there are 10 faculty affiliated with the Physics Department through JCET, an additional 9 JCET faculty affiliated in other departments on campus, 119 faculty in GEST, and 3 adjunct faculty (one each from NASA Goddard, NOAA NESDIS, and Howard University). Typically, half of the Atmospheric Physics graduate students are supported by affiliated or adjunct research faculty. Umbc is also offering the sports services like umbc athletics, umbc hockey and also umbc ccemtp.UBMC is the biggest financer for these activities and also other Universities which are affiliated to UMBC Universty because UMBC fell proud to be national leader and also doing god job in US collages in case of scholarship. There are some UMBC events Facilities Master Plan - Campus Forum, Theatre: Grrl Parts, Men's Lacrosse vs. North Carolina, Shadow and Substance: African American Images From the Burns Archive and also some upcoming everts UMBC Among The Princeton Review’s “Top 50 Undergraduate Game Design Programs” and Cyberwarfare Team Captures First Place at Regionals. Check some currect resources for the students like Student Life Resources, Academic Resources, Tuition Payment ,Publications and Student Media and Information along with campus resources. UMBC Library News & Events like Google Search Tips – Workshop, Musical scores in the library catalog, GREENR - Database Trial and Historical Statistics of the US - New Database. So finally, UMBC is the leading University and increasing its students in allover the world.
