The NERC Earth System Science Graduate School

国家大气科学中心(NCAS)将代表一个由NERC研究与合作中心和强大的大学系组成的联合体来协调NERC地球系统科学研究生院(NESSGS)。该学院将为NERC资助的研究学生和其他早期职业研究人员在地球系统科学(ESS)及其应用的科学概念方面提供广泛和深入的基础。该联盟在地球、海洋、陆地、大气和极地科学领域拥有广泛的代表性，并将利用其在综合科学方面的国际声誉，包括地球观测、气候科学、全球系统建模、水和生物地球化学循环、生物多样性、环境可持续性、能源和政策制定。学校将包括正式讲座、工作坊、小组工作、演讲、实践练习和实地观察。将非常强调学生的参与和社区建设，并强烈希望建立持久的网络。作为国际领先的研究机构，合作伙伴能够年复一年地适应不同的具体主题，并拥有庞大的国际合作者网络，为教学做出贡献。通过提供暑期班，该联盟将确保NERC有信心使其研究型学生在任何地方都能获得世界领先的ESS研究培训。

The National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) will coordinate the NERC Earth System Science Graduate School (NESSGS) on behalf of a consortium of NERC Research and Collaborative Centres and strong university departments. The school will provide NERC-funded research students and other early career researchers with a broad and in-depth foundation in the scientific concepts of Earth System Science (ESS) and its applications. The consortium has broad representations across the disciplines of earth, marine, terrestrial, atmospheric and polar science and will draw on its international reputation in integrative science, including earth observation, climate science, whole earth system modelling, the water and biogeochemical cycles, biodiversity, environmental sustainability, energy and policy making. The school will include formal lectures, workshops, group work, presentations, practical exercises, field observations. There will be a strong emphasis on student participation and community building, with a strong intention of creating lasting networks. As internationally leading research organisations in their own right, the partners are able to be adaptable in varying specific themes from year to year and have large networks of international collaborators available to contribute to the teaching. Through provision of this summer school, the consortium will ensure that NERC can be confident that its research students have access to world leading research training in ESS wherever they are based.
