During the last decades human ingenuity and activity have unfortunately resulted in the proliferation and the release of new man-made chemicals into the environment. As we now know, such pollution problems are not isolated and local, but found in every nation and on a global level. This poses a magnitude of new questions. For example, are these pollutants transported by air or water to distant locations? Are these chemicals harmful to human health? Do they threaten more sensitive wildlife species? How can we detect contamination in the environment? What can we do to hasten their destruction? Since environmental contamination touches everyone's life, it also raises other issues for scientists and engineers such as which laws deal with this issue? Which state, federal or international agencies should be involved? How can scientists and engineers inform and work with the public to alleviate fear and/or prevent harm? Solutions to environmental problems are therefore a team effort. Thus, future scientists and engineers need (i) thorough training in their specific field, (ii) basic knowledge about socioeconomic, legal, engineering and science aspects outside their field, and (iii) an ability to communicate and cooperate with specialists in other disciplines and societies. These are the goals of the proposed Cross-Disciplinary Training "Without Borders" core project. This training core will build on successful collaborations among the isbrp faculty and with international colleagues. It will enhance or establish new activities among these scientists that promote crossdisciplinary education, and use new information technology to connect students and faculty around the world. Graduate students will be recruited into the program basis of their ability, motivation and academic record. Emphasis will be placed on identifying and recruiting qualified individuals from underrepresented groups in science and engineering. Other students, post-docs and professionals will be .encouraged to participate by using modern information technology. This isbrp has the ideal basis to develop such a training program for the scientist of the 21st century.

不幸的是，在过去的几十年中，人类创造力和活动导致了增殖 并将新的人造化学物质释放到环境中。如我们现在所知，这种污染 问题不是孤立和本地的，而是在每个国家和全球范围内发现的。这是一个 新问题的大小。例如，这些污染物是由空气或水运输到遥远的 位置？这些化学物质对人类健康有害吗？他们威胁着更敏感的野生动植物吗 物种？我们如何检测环境中的污染？我们能做些什么来加速他们 破坏？由于环境污染触动了每个人的生活，因此也引发了其他问题 对于科学家和工程师，诸如哪个法律涉及此问题？哪个州，联邦或 国际机构应该参与吗？科学家和工程师如何告知和合作 公众减轻恐惧和/或防止伤害？因此，解决环境问题的解决方案是 团队努力。因此，未来的科学家和工程师需要（i）在其特定领域进行彻底培训，（ii） 关于其领域外的社会经济，法律，工程和科学方面的基础知识，以及 （iii）能够与其他学科和社会的专家进行交流和合作的能力。这些 是拟议的跨学科培训“无国界”核心项目的目标。这 培训核心将基于ISBRP教师之间的成功合作和国际 同事。它将在这些科学家中增强或建立新的活动，以促进跨学科 教育，并使用新的信息技术将学生和教师联系起来 世界。研究生将被招募到他们的能力，动力和 学术记录。重点将放在识别和招募合格个人 科学与工程领域的代表性不足。其他学生，职业后和专业人士 将通过使用现代信息技术来参加。这个ISBRP有理想 为21世纪的科学家制定这样的培训计划的基础。
