Arctic Floating University is established to unite science and education on the territory of the Arctic region and aims to preserve the Arctic environment and ensure sustainable development of the region.
Brief description:
“The Arctic Floating University” is an innovative educational project designed to help young researchers and explorers of the Arctic gain knowledge and skills in real life conditions of the northern seas.
The research vessel “Professor Molchanov”, the only vessel in Europe affording to combine research and practice onboard for training of specialists and researchers, becomes the floating university for the duration of the project. It is a steel-hulled, ice-strengthened ship for Arctic supply and oceanographic research, completely refurbished to meet both passenger and oceanographic needs.
The project was made possible through the joint efforts of Northern (Arctic) Federal University (NArFU), Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring of Russia (Roshydromet) and the Arkhangelsk Branch of the Russian Geographical Society.
The Arctic Floating University conducts oceanographical, hydro-chemical, geographical, glaciological, meteorological, seismological, radiological, biological and other research in the White Sea, the Barents Sea, the Kara Sea, the Laptev Sea, the East Siberian Sea, the Chuckchee Sea, as well as Wrangel Island in the harborage area of the White Sea and the Barents Sea of the Arctic Ocean.
