Bournemouth University

Bournemouth University is a public university based in the Dorset coastal town of Bournemouth, England, whose main Talbot Campus stands across the local boundary in the neighbouring town of Poole.伯恩茅斯大学是设在今英格兰多塞特海滨城镇伯恩茅斯的一所公立大学，其主校区塔博特校园坐落在地方行政边界另一侧、与本市紧邻的普尔镇境内。

The university traces its origins to the early 1900s, gained polytechnic status in 1990, and was renamed Bournemouth University in 1992, when a single decision awarded university status to every British polytechnic.该校办学源头可上溯至二十世纪初，1990 年取得理工学院地位，1992 年在政府一纸决定将英国所有理工学院一并升格为大学之际，正式更名为伯恩茅斯大学。

It now teaches well over seventeen thousand students, including more than three thousand from overseas, and carries the Latin motto Discere Mutari Est, meaning To Learn is to Change.如今在校学生在 17,000 人以上，其中自海外来读者逾 3,000 人，校训为拉丁文「Discere Mutari Est」，意即学习即是改变。

History

• The university began as Bournemouth Municipal College, founded in the early twentieth century, which at first prepared its students to sit the external degree examinations set by the University of London.大学的前身是二十世纪初创办的伯恩茅斯市立学院，该院起初仅为学生准备由伦敦大学统一命题的外部学位考试。

• From 1942 until 1976 the college prepared its students for University of London degrees, and by the mid-1960s it carried some 6,850 daytime and evening students on its registers.从 1942 年直到 1976 年，学院一直辅导学生考取伦敦大学学位；到二十世纪六十年代中期，其日间与夜间在册学生约达 6,850 人。

• As early as 1965 the student numbers at the college were raised in the House of Commons, where the Secretary of State for Education was asked to weigh a university application.早在 1965 年，下议院便已提及该学院的学生规模，并就此请教育大臣考量其升格为大学的申请。

• At that time the government did not intend to create any new universities until the late 1970s, so the college was left waiting more than a decade before it gained university status.当时政府并不打算在二十世纪七十年代末之前创设任何新大学，于是学院只能继续等待十余年，方获大学地位。

• During the 1970s the municipal college became the Bournemouth College of Technology, a reorganisation that broadened its curriculum toward technical and vocational teaching beyond the old external London degree courses.二十世纪七十年代，市立学院改组为伯恩茅斯技术学院，把课程从旧有的伦敦大学外部学位，转向更宽的技术与职业教育。

• Later in the same decade, following a review carried out by the Dorset Education Committee, the College of Technology was reorganised once more and renamed the Dorset Institute of Higher Education.同一十年后期，经多塞特教育委员会一次复核，技术学院再度改组，并更名为多塞特高等教育学院。

• Bernard MacManus was appointed Director in 1983 and presided over a significant expansion of both curriculum and student numbers, despite initial uncertainty surrounding the proposed Weymouth Campus.1983 年伯纳德·麦克马纳斯获聘为院长，尽管拟建的外默斯校区起初悬而未决，他仍主持了课程与生源的大幅扩展。

• Throughout his tenure the Talbot Campus, first established in 1976, was consolidated, the neighbouring Student Village was constructed, and a second teaching site was opened at Lansdowne.在其任内，始建于 1976 年的塔博特校园得到整合，毗邻的学生村兴建落成，兰斯唐另辟第二处教学用地。

• Between 1983 and 1994 the institute expanded into several new disciplines, among them heritage, tourism, taxation, public relations, computer animation, and information systems.1983 至 1994 年间，学院向若干新学科扩张，其中包括遗产、旅游、税务、公共关系、计算机动画与信息系统诸领域。

• Two foundation stones survive within the university's buildings today, the College of Technology stone of the 1970s standing in the main lobby of Poole House on the Talbot Campus.直至今日，大学楼内仍存两枚奠基石；其中二十世纪七十年代技术学院的那枚，立于塔博特校园普尔大楼的主门厅。

• The Dorset Institute foundation stone is mounted inside Dorset House near a facility now called The Edge, recording the institute's footprint before it ever achieved university status.多塞特高等教育学院的那枚奠基石嵌在多塞特大楼内，临近今称作「The Edge」的设施，记录其升格为大学前的办学足迹。

• Bernard MacManus, who had led the institute and then the university through its first years, was honoured in 2007 when Bournemouth University conferred an honorary doctorate upon him.伯纳德·麦克马纳斯曾先后执掌该学院与升格之初的大学，2007 年获伯恩茅斯大学授予荣誉博士学位，以彰其功。

• The expansion achieved under Dr MacManus allowed the institute to build a strong case to become a polytechnic, and that higher status was formally granted in 1990.麦克马纳斯博士任内所取得的扩张，使学院足以有力论证升格为理工学院，这一更高地位于 1990 年获正式批准。

• In 1992 a single government decision granted university status to every polytechnic in Britain at once, and under that change the institute was renamed to become Bournemouth University.1992 年，政府一纸决定将英国境内所有理工学院一次性升格为大学，学院据此更名，自此成为伯恩茅斯大学。

• By September 1994, more than 9,000 students had been recruited from across the United Kingdom and from overseas into the university's undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes.到 1994 年 9 月，大学已从英国各地及海外招收逾 9,000 名学生，就读于其本科与研究学位课程。

• By 1996 the university held eleven endowed professorial chairs, a notable number that reflected its close working links with British industry and the wider professional world.到 1996 年，大学已设 11 座由捐赠设立的教席，这一可观数目反映其与英国业界及更广泛专业界的紧密合作。

• Among the named chairs were the Royal Mail Chair in Business Performance Improvement, the Intel Chair in Computer Supported Cooperation, and the Hewlett-Packard Chair in Computer Animation.这些具名教席包括皇家邮政商业绩效改进教席、英特尔计算机协作教席，以及惠普计算机动画教席。

• Further endowed professorships were sponsored by IBM, Intergraph, GPT, Steele Raymond, Sutcliffe, Marks and Spencer, and the British Property Federation across engineering, law, catering, and retail studies.其余捐赠教席由 IBM、Intergraph、GPT、Steele Raymond、Sutcliffe、玛莎百货与英国财产联盟出资冠名，分属工程、法律、餐饮与零售等学科。

• In recent years the university announced a significant investment programme, under which it planned to spend some two hundred million pounds on new buildings and facilities by the year 2018.近年来，大学公布一项重大投资计划，拟在该计划下于 2018 年前在建筑与设施上新投入约 2 亿英镑。

• A central element of that programme was a new Student Centre, which opened in March 2015 and today houses the Students' Union on the Talbot Campus.该计划的一项核心内容，是新建一座学生中心，它于 2015 年 3 月落成，如今在塔博特校园内作为学生会的驻地。

• The university's coat of arms was granted in 1992 by the College of Arms, the official heraldic authority for England, at the very occasion of the institution gaining university status.大学的纹章于 1992 年由纹章院授予，纹章院是英格兰的官方纹章主管机构；此次颁予恰逢其取得大学地位之际。

• The shield bears talbots, heraldic beasts that point to the naming of the main campus, and three crowns recalling the old Saxon crowns of the Kingdom of Wessex and nearby boroughs.盾徽上绘有塔博特猎犬，这种纹章兽暗指主校区之名；又饰三顶王冠，追溯昔日威塞克斯王国的撒克逊王冠与周边自治市镇。

• The blue field represents the nearby sea along Dorset's Jurassic Coast, a red dragon stands for Dorset itself, and a scroll beneath signifies learning beside the motto Discere Mutari Est.蓝色底纹象征多塞特侏罗纪海岸一带的近海，红龙代表多塞特本身，其下的书卷寓意学问，衬于拉丁校训「Discere Mutari Est」之旁。
