About Necessity of Development a Common Method of training of Students in Natural Science to Solve Ecoogical and Environmental Problems

Abstract

The problem of worsening of ecological situation on the Earth and in the Nordic and the Baltic countries requires a detailed search to find solutions ecological and environmental problems. It is obviously that their decision may occur on various fronts: reducing greenhouse gas emissions, increasing the share of energy plants, new water treatment technologies, management of municipal solid waste, etc.

However, not only technology, but also the skills of engineers, scientists and support staff underlie of each of these approaches. Therefore it’s important to make a decision in training of highly qualified personnel to develop and manage new technologies comes out on top.

The Nordic and the Baltic Sea region consists of 10 states, each of which has its own system of training specialists in the field of ecology and environmental. One of the aims is not only to analyze the set of natural-scientific disciplines that are studied by the future specialists in this area and their volume, but also to create (develop) a single, brand new for the Nordic and Baltic region, the method of training, based on an analysis of existing systems. This approach can be implemented on the basis of the traditional cooperation in this area between the St. Petersburg State Polytechnic University ( SPbSPU) (Russia) and the University of Linnaeus ( Sweden), involving other universities, producing companies and the management authorities of cities of the Baltic and northern regions and the creation of an extensive network on the subject.
