  1. TRAINING IN THE FIELD OF MARINE ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABLE USE OF ITS RESOURCESSergey Dobrolyubov, Victor Arkhipkin, Antonina Polyakova, Tatyana PolyakovaDept. of Oceanology, Moscow State University

  2. Outline • Oceanographic Education in Russian Classical Universities • Department of Oceanology, MSU: contacts with IOC • Field training of students and research activity • New MSc Programs in Oceanography

  3. HIGHER ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN RUSSIA (more than 150 universities) Classical Universities Educational Universities Technical Universities FUNDAMENTAL (ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES) APPLIED (ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING) FACULTIES OF GEOGRAPHY, BIOLOGY, ECONOMY, ECOLOGY, ETC. DIFFERENT BRANCHES OF TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSIIES The 30th Congress of the International Geographical Union

  4. Higher Oceanographic Education in Russia Two types of oceanographiccurriculum: • Classical Universities – faculties of geography, departments of oceanology • Hydrometeorological Universities – engeneering and more applied aspects

  5. Russian State Hydrometeorological University

  6. CLASSICAL UNIVERSITIES: LEVELS OF НYDROMETEOROLOGICAL EDUCATION (till 2011) 4 years Bachelor in Hydrometeorology 5 years Specialist in: Meteorology and Climatology Surface Hydrology SPECIALITES Oceanology Master in Hydrometeorology 6 years

  8. Since 1953:550 grads, including - only 32 girls - 44Doctors of Science - > 160 PhDs

  9. RESEARCH Large-Scale circulation and Water masses of the World Ocean Marine ecology of shelf waters Internal Seas of Russia (Black, Caspian,White, Baltic)

  10. Оceanographicscientific Schoolof Moscow State University Y. Shokalskiy N. Zubov A. Duvanin А.Dobrovolskiy (1953-1988) Heads of the Department О. Mamaev (1988-1994) S.Lappo (1994-2006)

  11. Oleg Mamaev (1925-1994) 1969-1977 Assistant Secretary of IOC on regional programs 1970-1994 Member of Joint Panel of Experts on Oceanographic Tables and Standards (PSS-78, EOS-80, Int. Oceanographic Tables-87) 1993-1994 National Coordinator of TREDMAR (training of experts and education on marine sciences)

  12. Field Practice on the Black Sea Southern Branch of the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology (Gelendjik Region) 44°34’N, 37° 58’ E

  18. Sustainable Development of Coastal Zones Current Situation in Russia The Russian Federation has the longest coastline in the world: 60 000 km Legislation does not define the coastal zone as an integral object of management, the ecosystem as a whole is likely to be damaged by its many users Global sea level rise and coastal erosion results in the loss of valuable coastal land and the infrastructure associated with it. 41% of Russia’s coastline suffers from erosion. Intensification of anthropogenic impact on coastal areas (oil and gas industry, recreation) and enhancement of economical damage from natural and man-induced hazards Absence of special environmental education in classical universities

  19. New MSc Programs Moscow State University (since 2007): • Oceanography of Shelf Zones • Sustainable Development of Coastal Zone

  20. Sustainable Development of Coastal Zones Basic courses : Coastal Geomorphology Estuarine Processes Dynamics of Shelf Waters Modern Socio-economical Processes in Coastal Zone

  21. Oceanography of Shelf Zones Basic courses : Dynamics of Shelf Waters Ecology of Shelf Waters Remote Sensing of Shelf Waters Biogeochemistry of Barrier Zones

  22. SPECIFIC STATUS – PERSONAL EDUCATIONAL STANDARD FOR MOSCOW STATE UNIVERSITY (2011) 4 years Bachelor in Hydrometeorology Integrated Specialist- Master degree, Batchelors – only the worst 20% 6 years Fundamental Oceanology Master 2 years
