This fall, the University of Miami will set up a School of Environmental and Planetary Sciences, providing interdisciplinary programs leading to both master’s and doctoral degrees. The School will consist of four cooperating divisions—new Institutes of Atmospheric Science, of Space Physics, and of Planetary Bioscience which will join Miami’s Institute of Marine Science, established in 1942. Maximum enrollment is expected to be about 400, with some 100 graduate students in each institute. Named as dean of the complex is S. Fred Singer, who is resigning from his post as director of the National Weather Satellite Center in Washington, D.C.
