Oceanography Short Course for Instructors of Undergraduate Marine Sciences

这个为期三周的海洋学短期课程是由圣地亚哥大学和Grossmont-Cuyamaca社区学院为本科海洋科学讲师提供的。它更新了两年制和四年制院校的教师在受技术影响的海洋科学方面的知识。课程目标是提供海洋研究和应用方面的最新信息；海洋样品收集和数据分析的实践经验；以及新的教学材料和技术。40名参与者通过参加大学、斯克里普斯海洋学研究所（UCSD）、格罗斯蒙特社区学院、圣奥诺弗雷海岸核电站、商业水产养殖设施和海洋世界/哈布斯研究所的各种活动，获得三个研究生学期的海洋研究单元。实地考察包括在125' R/V Gordon Sproul上收集数据和样本，实地考察沉积海洋相的经典暴露，以及经过Los Coronados群岛到墨西哥Ensenada的航行，到下加利福尼亚自治大学海洋研究设施。该计划为本科课堂提供了广泛的海洋相关信息：前沿科学信息，教学材料和软件，以及当前海洋研究项目和就业机会的数据。

This three week Oceanography Short Course for Instructors of Undergraduate Marine Sciences is offered by the University of San Diego and Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College. It updates instructors from 2- and 4-year institutions in the technologically impacted ocean sciences. Course objectives are to provide state- of-the-art information in marine research and applications; hands- on experiences in oceanographic sample collecting and data analysis; and new instructional materials and techniques. The forty participants earn three graduate semester units in Marine Studies by participating in a variety of activities at the University, and at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (UCSD), Grossmont Community College, the coastal nuclear power station at San Onofre, commercial aquiculture facilities, and Sea World/Hubbs Research Institute. Field excursions include data and sample collecting aboard the 125' R/V Gordon Sproul, site visits to classic exposures of sedimentary marine facies, and a voyage past the Los Coronados Islands to Ensenada, Mexico, to the University Autonomia de Baja California Marine Studies facilities. The program presents a broad spectrum of ocean-related information for undergraduate classrooms: cutting edge scientific information, instructional materials and software, and data on current marine studies programs and employment possibilities.
