專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
The Climate Change Institute (CCI) offers a Master of Science degree in Quaternary and Climate Studies. The program provides students with training in anthropology/archaeology, biology, climatology and/or geology of the Quaternary Period and contributes to an appreciation of the interaction of these fields towards a better understanding of Quaternary paleoclimatology, paleoecology, and prehistoric archaeology. Many of the courses pertinent to the Quaternary Period are listed under offerings by cooperating departments. Graduate thesis credits are arranged by the staff.
Quaternary and Climate Studies commonly are interdisciplinary and thus require cooperation between several academic departments. To facilitate such cooperation, the Climate Change Institute, dedicated to teaching and research, was established at The University of Maine in 1972. The Institute is staffed by members of the Departments of Anthropology, Computer Science, History, the School of Earth and Climate Sciences, the School of Biology and Ecology, and School of Marine Sciences. The Institute is not a formal academic department. Rather, it is a research unit and serves to organize and promote interdepartmental teaching and research related to Quaternary and Climate Studies.
Career Opportunities
Students of the MS program in Quaternary and Climate Studies gain an understanding of the Earth’s physical and chemical climate system, as well as of the relationships among climate, ecosystems, and humans. They also develop basic proficiency with climate analysis tools and gain key professional skills in interdisciplinary science, including communication to various audiences, collaborative skills, and proposal development. Graduates of this program enter a range of professional fields in research and education, including both private and governmental sectors in the areas of environmental protection, conservation, and cultural resource management. Graduates sometimes transition into a related PhD program at the University of Maine or elsewhere.
