0222779 Aitken The Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP) and the American Academy of Environmental Engineers (AAEE) are preparing a conference on education and research needs in environmental engineering and science. The conference will be held August 10-14, 2002, on the campus of the University of Toronto. Since no single professional society represents the entire field, this conference provides a unique opportunity for the community of educators, researchers and practitioners in environmental engineering and science to discuss mutual interests, compare methods, and identify needs for the advancement of the profession.The overall theme of the conference is Integrated Environmental Teaching, Research and Practice: Linking Engineering and Science to Address Complex Problems. Within this broad theme, five sub- themes will be addressed: Understanding Complex Environmental Systems; Use of Information Technologies for Monitoring and Data Management; Integrating Novel and Advanced Technologies into Understanding and Solving Environmental Problems; Sustainable Systems; and Innovative Educational Approaches. These sub-themes represent an extension of AEESP's last Research Needs conference (1999, Penn State), which focused on complex systems, a sustainable environment, and advanced molecular tools; a recognition that information technologies play an increasingly important role in obtaining, organizing and analyzing a vast amount of data for use in decision-making for environmental systems; and an exploration of how advanced knowledge and methods can be incorporated into both education and practice. Such an emphasis on the continuum among research, teaching, and practice is critical to the long-term evolution of this engineering discipline. ***

0222779艾特肯环境工程和科学教授协会（AEESP）和美国环境工程师学会（AAEE）正在筹备一个关于环境工程和科学教育和研究需求的会议。会议将于2002年8月10日至14日在多伦多大学校园举行。由于没有一个专业协会代表整个领域，本次会议为环境工程和科学领域的教育工作者、研究人员和从业人员提供了一个独特的机会，讨论共同的利益，比较方法，并确定专业发展的需求。会议的总主题是综合环境教学，研究和实践：将工程和科学联系起来解决复杂问题。 在这一广泛的主题范围内，将讨论五个分主题：了解复杂的环境系统;使用信息技术进行监测和数据管理;将新的和先进的技术纳入了解和解决环境问题;可持续系统;和创新的教育方法。这些子主题代表了AEESP上次研究需求会议的延伸（1999年，宾夕法尼亚州立大学），重点是复杂系统，可持续的环境和先进的分子工具;认识到信息技术在获取，组织和分析大量数据用于环境系统决策方面发挥着越来越重要的作用;以及如何将先进的知识和方法融入教育和实践的探索。这种强调研究，教学和实践之间的连续性对这一工程学科的长期发展至关重要。***
