The visit was conducted as part of the College’s commitment to strengthening the practical aspects of students’ education and expanding their scientific horizons by linking theoretical knowledge with real-world applications. During the visit, students were introduced to the instruments used for measuring meteorological and climatic elements, including temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and wind speed, among others. They also learned about the mechanisms employed in collecting meteorological data, analyzing weather information, and preparing official weather forecasts and climate reports.

At the conclusion of the visit, an agreement was reached to adopt official meteorological data provided by the Directorate in students’ research projects related to renewable energy applications. This step is expected to enhance the accuracy and scientific reliability of future studies.

The College of Science extends its sincere appreciation to the administration and staff of the Iraqi Meteorological Directorate in Mosul for their warm reception, valuable cooperation, and the scientific information they shared, which contributed significantly to broadening students’ knowledge and strengthening their practical experience.
