Future Challenges in Geoscience: Addressing Common Issues and Historical Perspectives

This text explores the common issues and challenges faced by CHUGD and CHPGD in the evolving landscape of geoscience education. With a historical perspective highlighting the separation of these organizations and the shift towards larger, more comprehensive schools, it delves into concerns such as cross-disciplinary issues, variable meeting attendance, and disparities between research-intensive and teaching-focused departments. It raises critical questions about promoting member interests and suggests that stronger ties with CHES could enhance effectiveness in meeting contemporary demands.

  1. CHUGD – CHES Some common issues and challenges for the future? • Historical perspective • CHUGD & CHPGD were separate • Larger number of smaller Geology Departments • Very strong subject-specific focus • Active membership • Current position • CHUGD/CHPGD merged • Fewer, larger and more broadly-based Schools • Issues of concern often cross-disciplinary • Attendance at meetings more variable

  2. CHUGD – CHES Some common issues and challenges for the future? • Issues for the future? • Geology → Geoscience → Earth Sciences → ? • Disparity in membership; big (i.e. research intensive) and smaller (i.e. teaching focussed) departments • More demands on HoDs time from their HEIs • Other groups/organisation may better serve interests of sub-groups of CHUGD members • How can we be more effective in promoting the interests of our members? • Would closer links with CHES help ?
