摘要

My last contribution to the Oceanography Classroom, in which I addressed undergraduate oceanography education in a global world, ended with a promise to discuss graduate oceanography education next. I now hold the September 2003 issue of our magazine in my hands and notice the contribution of Brix et al. (2003) on a similar theme, so these pages can be seen as directing the spotlight on the same topic from a different angle. One of the issues discussed by Brix and co-authors is the variation in the time allocated to graduate studies. Brix et al. point out that at many universities the duration of Ph.D. degrees is shorter than what we would consider academically adequate. To change that situation requires an understanding of the causes. One of the first universities of the "Western World", the Museum and Library of Alexandria, was founded before 300 B.C. Staff and students received free board and lodging for the duration of their stay, which was unlimited. In return they were required to engage in scientific discussion with their colleagues and to lend all manuscripts in their possession to the Library for copying. Among the many generations of famous scientists were such illustrious names as Archimedes, Ptolemy and Euclid, who established the foundations of science for the next 1500 years―not a bad return on what was undoubtedly a significant part of Egypt's state budget.
