Session-IV: AGU-IGU Collaboration This special session held in the forenoon of 11 th January was chaired by Dr. Walter D Mooney. After his introductory remarks, Prof. Surjalal Sharma of University of Maryland, USA gave a brief account of strides made by AGU and usefulness of collaboration between IGU and AGU. Dr. Carol Finn in her key note talk presented details on the important initiatives taken by AGU in strengthening co-operation between scientists from different parts of the world and usefulness of co-operation between AGU and IGU. This was followed by a welcome response by Dr. V.P. Dimri and signing of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between AGU and IGU, for the benefit of science and society, improvement of activities, exchange of scientific information on key programs, expansion of membership, possible co-organizing of conferences, and participation in seminars/ symposia from time to time. As the Chairman felt a panel discussion would better project the importance of collaboration and clear doubts, if any, a panel discussion was held under the chairmanship of Prof.Harsh Gupta.
7 Prof. Harsh Gupta welcomed the panel for discussion on AGU-IGU Way forward. He welcomed the idea of co-operation between AGU & IGU. After listening to Dr Carol Finn talk about the AGU, its objectives, interaction, publications, meetings, and conducting seminars, Prof. Gupta expressed that the gap between AGU & IGU is very large and one should take into account the way the AGU organises various activities. To start with the quality of IGU Journal needs to be enhanced learning from AGU s achievements in bringing out 12 high impact factor journals. He further felt that once the IGU Journal improves and gets higher impact factor, automatically IGU will flourish. Then, he opened the debate on the AGU-IGU interaction. Prof. V.P. Dimri informed that most of the participants during the annual conventions and workshops expressed that IGU and AGU co-operation would enhance IGU s visibility and help IGU to carry out its scientific pursuits making use of the experiences gained by AGU. He clarified that as most of the activities of both the organisations are similar and as AGU has agreed to the collaboration in principle, this interactive session has been organised and the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed. After a prolonged discussion on various aspects related to publication, joint meetings, IGU Journal, Students participation and scientific programs/meetings between the two organisations some specific recommendations have been made: 1. AGU is an industry oriented organisation with a well established administrative structure and regional offices all over the world. IGU has very limited resources and mainly run by a group of volunteers using assistance from government/non-government/private/ industry. And as such the collaboration should be aimed at meeting targets that can be reachable. 2. It is agreed that enhancing quality of IGU publication, joint meeting of AGU and IGU in India, involving the SAARC countries for exchange of scientific/technical knowledge, student participation, joint membership of AGU and IGU with a concession in the subscription should be given importance, as main components of the collaboration. Dr. Carol Finn informed that some of the points raised in the session will be placed before the Board of Directors of AGU for their approval. Once some of the recommendations are agreed by the Board of Directors (such as joint membership, organising joint meeting in India, involvement of SAARC countries, joint organisation of seminars etc), she would get back to IGU for further necessary action. The session was concluded with over all appreciation of the delegates for the MoU between AGU and IGU.
8 Session V: Panel discussion on Higher Education in Earth Sciences The discussion moderated by Prof. P. Rajendra Prasad of Andhra University had Dr. Carol Finn, Prof. V.P. Dimri, Prof. Surjalal Sharma, Prof. V. Krishnamurty and Prof. S.S. Teotia as panellists. The status of higher education in Geosciences both in India and USA has been discussed on comparable grounds with special emphasis on Indian scenario. Panellists expressed concern regarding steep decline in the enrolment of meritorious students for geosciences programs at Masters and Doctoral levels. Though in recent times sufficiently large funding avenues have been in place, Capacity building encompassing state of the art experimental and analytical facilities, field equipment, competent teachers and students with commitment to pursue earth science as career have not been sufficiently witnessed for multiple reasons. Further there has been a huge disparity between academic institutions funded by Central and State Governments, research organizations, professional agencies etc., in respect of availably of basic facilities to carryout teaching and research activities. It was decided by the Panel that the focus should be: Attract good students, competent and committed teachers; augment basic infrastructural facilities that can comply with the minimum research and teaching needs; and enhance student employability to ensure sustainable development of Higher Education in Earth Sciences.
