    CAMPUS PROFILE AND POINTS OF DISTINCTION campus profileOCTOBER 2018 CAMPUS PROFILE AND POINTS OF DISTINCTION At the University of California San Diego, we constantly push boundaries and challenge expectations. Established in 1960, UC San Diego has been shaped by exceptional scholars who aren’t afraid to take risks and redefine conventional wisdom. Today, as one of the top 15 research universities in the world, we are driving innovation and change to advance society, propel economic growth, and make our world a better place. UC San Diego’s main campus is located near the Pacific Ocean on 1,200 acres of coastal woodland in La Jolla, California. The campus sits on land formerly inhabited by Kumeyaay tribal members, the original native inhabitants of San Diego County. UC San Diego’s rich academic portfolio includes six undergraduate colleges, five academic divisions, and five graduate and professional schools. BY THE NUMBERS • 36,624 Total campus enrollment (as of Fall 2017); • 16 Number of Nobel laureates who have taught the largest number of students among colleges on campus and universities in San Diego County. • 201 Memberships held by current and emeriti • 97,670 Total freshman applications for 2018 faculty in the National Academy of Sciences (73), National Academy of Engineering (84), • 4.13 Admitted freshman average high school GPA and National Academy of Medicine (44). • $4.7 billion Fiscal year 2016-17 revenues; • 4 Scripps Institution of Oceanography operates 20 percent of this total is revenue from contracts three research vessels and an innovative Floating and grants, most of which is from the federal Instrument Platform (FLIP), enabling faculty, government for research.

  • Mario Molina (1943– ) Information Sheet
    Mario Molina (1943– ) information sheet Mario Molina (Picture reproduced courtesy of Nobel Foundation.) As a boy, Mario Molina was strongly influenced by his aunt, a chemist in the sugar industry, who later became a teacher. She used to encourage him to carry out chemistry experiments at home in a converted bathroom. From a young age Mario’s ambition was to be a research scientist, even though it was not a trendy job for a young Mexican. Why investigate CFCs and the atmosphere? Molina went to university and studied chemistry at degree level. He then took a research degree (a PhD) in 1972, at the University of California, Berkeley. Molina then went to Irvine to work with a man called Sherwood Rowland, who had recently heard that the British scientist James Lovelock had discovered some of the refrigerant trichlorofluoromethane (called CFC-11) in the atmosphere of the Northern and Southern hemisphere. He was curious to find out more, and wanted to know the answer to a simple question, ‘what happens to CFCs in the environment and were there any consequences?’ Rowland managed to persuade his sponsors to fund the project and Molina started investigating CFCs in October 1973, even though his knowledge of atmospheric chemistry was limited. Molina got to work, carrying out calculations and he soon started to build up a very worrying picture of the atmosphere. If he was right, it was not good news; if he was wrong he would look stupid. What should he do next? Molina’s theory CFC’s were so inert that there was nothing for them to react with in the atmosphere.

  • Paul Josef Crutzen: Ingeniousness and Innocence RETROSPECTIVE Hans Joachim Schellnhubera,B,1
    RETROSPECTIVE Paul Josef Crutzen: Ingeniousness and innocence RETROSPECTIVE Hans Joachim Schellnhubera,b,1 On January 28, 2021, the world lost a scholar, who won a Nobel Prize, who shaped our thinking about planet Earth, and whose fight for the protection of the global environment will be remembered forever. Paul Josef Crutzen was born in Amsterdam in 1933 and embarked on a cosmopolitan journey in 1957, when he left The Netherlands for Sweden. Looking back at that journey, we can state that he arrived at a triad of accomplishments that few intellectuals obtain: the disruptive advancement of science, the inspiring com- munication of science, and the responsible operation- alization of science. Paul was trained as a civil engineer for the con- struction sector, which he abandoned for becoming a computer programmer at the Meteorology Institute of Stockholm University (MISU). The university housed the world’s fastest computers at that time, and the institute, founded by the great Gustav Rossby, was at the forefront of atmospheric research. When Paul Paul J. Crutzen.

Sundstrom, Nobel Special Issue of Chemical Physics Letters, Chemical Physics Letters (2013), doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cplett.2013.10.045 This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication. As a service to our customers we are providing this early version of the manuscript. The manuscript will undergo copyediting, typesetting, and review of the resulting proof before it is published in its final form. Please note that during the production process errors may be discovered which could affect the content, and all legal disclaimers that apply to the journal pertain. Nobel Special Issue of Chemical Physics Letters Editorial The hallmark of Chemical Physics Letters is the fast publication of urgent communications of the highest quality. It has not escaped our notice that this policy has allowed several of the breakthrough papers in chemistry to be published in our journal. Indeed, looking through Chemical Physics Letters over the last 42 years we found papers published by as many as 15 authors who went on subsequently to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for work linked to their articles. Furthermore, several of these papers were referenced in the Nobel citations. We thought our readers would find it of interest to see a collection of these papers brought together and introduced with summaries explaining their significance and written by the Nobelists themselves, close colleagues or editors of the journal.

  • Missions for Nuclear Weapons After the Cold War
    FEDERATION of ofAAMERICANMERICANSCIENTISTSSCIENTISTS Missions for Nuclear Weapons after the Cold War Ivan Oelrich Occasional Paper No. 3 January 2005 About the Federation of American Scientists For almost sixty years, the Federation of American Scientists and our members have played a critical role both in identifying opportunities and risks resulting from advances in science and technology. Our efforts are focused on research and advocacy on science and policy issues to ensure that advances in science and technology make America more secure, our economy more sustainable, and our society more just. The Federation of American Scientists (FAS) was founded in 1945 by Manhattan Project scientists who recognized that atomic weapons had irreversibly changed the role of scientists in national affairs. Our members are united by the conviction that scientists and engineers have a unique opportunity — and responsibility — to help America seize the benefits of their discoveries and inventions and avoid their potential dangers. Our current work is focused on some of our country’s most critical policy challenges: strategic security, information technologies, science policy, housing and energy. Our work is funded by membership dues, philanthropic foundations, corporate and individual gifts, and government grants. FAS is a 501(c)3 organization. Donations and gifts are tax-deductible. Join or donate online at http://www.fas.org/join.html, or contact us at 202.546.3300. The Occasional Paper Series is a publication of the Federation of American Scientists. The purpose of the series is to stimulate and inform debate on current science and security policy issues. Copies of this and previous papers can be obtained by contacting the FAS at 202-546-3300 or by visiting our website: www.fas.org.
