Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences : ウィキペディア英語版 | Nicholas School of the Environment
The Nicholas School of the Environment is one of ten graduate and professional schools at Duke University and is headquartered on Duke’s main campus in Durham, N.C. A secondary coastal facility is maintained in Beaufort, North Carolina. The Nicholas School is composed of three research divisions: Earth and Ocean Sciences, Environmental Sciences and Policy and Marine Science and Conservation. The current dean of the Nicholas School is (Alan Townsend ). The Nicholas School provides a comprehensive multidisciplinary program focused on the relationship of the environment and society to prepare scientists, managers and policymakers to promote the sustainable use of Earth’s resources. The Nicholas School’s program is enhanced by strong collaborations with Duke’s Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions and Duke’s eight other graduate and professional schools. The Nicholas School has produced alumni who are leaders in conservation management, industry, government, environmental consulting, and academia. Students emerge from our program as multi-talented problem solvers who are poised in a corporate boardroom, confident on Capitol Hill, and comfortable in natural surroundings. ==History== The Nicholas School celebrates its creation date as 1991, but it represents a coming together of three entities that are almost as old as the university itself. Both formed in 1938, the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies and the Duke University Marine Laboratory came together in 1991 to become the School of Environment. Following a $20 million gift from Peter M. and Ginny Nicholas in 1995, the school was named the Nicholas School of the Environment. In 1997, the Department of Geology (formed in 1936) joined the school as the Division of Earth and Ocean Sciences and focuses on a number of areas at the intersection of earth and environmental sciences.
