塔斯马尼亚大学南极和环境科学世界领先

塔斯马尼亚大学的南极研究学习中心作为世界领先的研究权威机构得到了认可。该大学被指定联合国教科文组织库斯托南极和南大洋环境科学生态技术教席。

这是澳大利亚唯一的库斯托教席,也是联合国教科文组织在南极研究方面设立的唯一席位。

在塔斯马尼亚大学得到该全球仅有的智库认可之前,它刚刚建立了国际南极研究院,开设南极研究领域的跨学科的研究生课程。

就职库斯托主席职位的是塔斯马尼亚大学教授Andrew McMinn,他在环境研究、南极环境研究和气候变化带来的影响方面颇有建树。

McMinn教授表示:“通过研究生培训课程和全球研究项目,该席位将促进各国的合作,包括具有强项南极研究项目的国家和不具有南极研究传统的国家。通过建立该席位和国际南极研究院,我们可以为下一代研究者和政策制定者传递知识和信息,从而解决可持续资源管理问题,气候影响问题,和其他的全球环境和社会问题,并创造与南极和南大洋相关的生物技术方面的机会。”

UTAS officially endorsed as a leading world research authority on Antarctic and Environmental Sciences

Tasmania has confirmed its growing reputation as one of the world’s leading Antarctic research study centres, with the University of Tasmania being designated a prestigious UNESCO-Cousteau Ecotechnie Chair in Antarctic and Southern Ocean Environmental Sciences.

It is the only Cousteau endorsed Chair in Australia and the only UNESCO Chair in Antarctic Studies in the world.

The endorsement of UTAS into this exclusive global “think tank” follows the establishment by the University of the recently established International Antarctic Institute, which will offer inter-disciplinary post-graduate programs in Antarctic Studies.

The inaugural Cousteau Chair is UTAS Professor, Andrew McMinn, who has a wealth of experience in environmental research, Antarctic environmental research and the impacts of climate change.

“Through graduate student training programs and global research programs the Chair will facilitate the bringing together of nations, including countries with strong Antarctic research programs and non-traditional Antarctic research countries,” Professor McMinn said.

“By establishing this Chair in conjunction with the International Antarctic Institute, we can pass on the knowledge and information needed by the next generation of researchers and policy makers to address sustainable resource management, climate impacts and other global environmental and social issues, as well as biotechnical opportunities associated with Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.”
