NDSU has been by selected by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador.

The initiative is an effort to formally recognize NOAA partners who are improving the nation’s readiness against extreme weather, water and climate events.

As a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador, NDSU is committed to working with the NOAA and other ambassadors to strengthen national resilience against extreme weather. 

The Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador program helps unify efforts across government, non-profits, academia and private industry toward making the nation more ready, responsive and resilient against extreme environmental hazards.

Ambassadors serve as change agents and community leaders. They inspire others to be better informed and prepared, and help minimize or avoid the impacts of natural disasters.

As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
