二、紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)的歷史
The University can trace its origins to:
the School of Medicine and Surgery, established in 1834
Armstrong College, founded in 1871 for the teaching of physical sciences
These two colleges formed one division of the federal University of Durham. The Durham Colleges formed the other division.
The Newcastle Colleges merged to form King's College in 1937. In 1963, when the federal University was dissolved, King's College became the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. The University changed its trading name to Newcastle University in 2006.
The name University of Newcastle upon Tyne is still used in the most official of contexts, including on degree parchments.
The first Chairs at the Colleges were not only in fundamental disciplines such as mathematics, chemistry, physics, arts and literature, but also in the regionally important applied sciences such as geology, mining, naval architecture, engineering and agriculture. Newcastle became known worldwide as a hub of industrial activity, with a strong civic university as its intellectual underpinning.
紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)的前身是成立于1834年的醫(yī)學(xué)與外科學(xué)院和成立于1871年的用于物理科學(xué)教學(xué)的阿姆斯特朗學(xué)院。
這兩個(gè)學(xué)院合并，形成了聯(lián)邦杜倫大學(xué)的一個(gè)部門(mén)。杜倫大學(xué)的其他學(xué)院則組成學(xué)校的另一個(gè)部門(mén)。
紐卡斯?fàn)柛鲗W(xué)院于1937年合并，形成國(guó)王學(xué)院。1963年，聯(lián)邦杜倫大學(xué)解散，國(guó)王學(xué)院升格為泰恩河畔紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)。泰恩河畔紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)于2006年更名為紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)，但是這個(gè)名字仍出現(xiàn)在大多數(shù)官方文本中，包括在出現(xiàn)在學(xué)位羊皮紙中。
紐斯卡爾大學(xué)各個(gè)學(xué)院的第一批教授職位不僅涵蓋數(shù)學(xué)、化學(xué)、物理、藝術(shù)和文學(xué)等基礎(chǔ)學(xué)科，而且涵蓋一些有地域重要性的應(yīng)用學(xué)科，比如地質(zhì)學(xué)、礦業(yè)、造船學(xué)、工程和農(nóng)學(xué)。紐卡斯?fàn)柸缃褚殉蔀橐粋€(gè)世界著名的工業(yè)活動(dòng)中心，有強(qiáng)有力的市立大學(xué)作為其智力支撐。
Vision and values
The combination of being globally ambitious and regionally rooted forms the basis for Newcastle University’s vision for the future.
We believe in, and strive for, world-class academic excellence – but excellence with a purpose.
We work on the supply side of knowledge creation and dissemination, and respond to the demand side of societal challenges. We are a large employer and a magnet for tens of thousands of young people, and form an integral part of civil society. That is the hallmark of a civic university.
The search for a combination of global excellence and local relevance is one replicated in many places in the world. We believe that our success as a civic university will in itself become an exportable commodity.
綜合國(guó)際野心和扎根地域，這構(gòu)成了紐卡斯?fàn)柎髮W(xué)未來(lái)理念的基礎(chǔ)。
我們相信世界級(jí)的學(xué)術(shù)優(yōu)秀，并追求世界級(jí)學(xué)術(shù)優(yōu)秀，不過(guò)我們的優(yōu)秀并非無(wú)的放矢，而是帶有目的的。
在供應(yīng)這方面，我們努力創(chuàng)造知識(shí)、傳播知識(shí);在需求方面，我們努力回應(yīng)各種社會(huì)挑戰(zhàn)?？梢哉f(shuō)，我們是一個(gè)大型的雇主和磁石，吸引著成千上萬(wàn)的年輕人，構(gòu)成了公民社會(huì)不可或缺的一部分。而這，正是市立大學(xué)的標(biāo)志。
追求結(jié)合全球優(yōu)秀和地方相關(guān)，這樣的模式在世界的許多地方都被模仿。我們相信，我們作為市立大學(xué)的成功本身就是可出口的商品。
