| Abstract | The classes of Pellegrino Strobel at the University of Buenos Aires mark the beginning of geological teaching in Argentina. In these years six stages can be recognized. The first is a pioneering stage initiated by Strobel in 1865, culminating with Eduardo Aguirre who teaches geology from 1878 to 1906. The second stage consolidates teaching with Enrique Hermitte, who forms the first professionals who served the country in different disciplines and supervises the thesis of the first geologist graduates. The third stage marks the beginning of geological research, led by Juan Keidel and Pablo Groeber. It marks a change in teaching and research with the doctoral thesis in 1933 of Horacio J. Harrington of excellent scientific level. Harrington as director of the Institute of Geology of the University and as a teacher was one of the best Argentine geologists of the first half of the twentieth century. The military coup in 1955 marks the beginning of the fourth stage led by Felix Gonzalez Bonorino characterized by a more solid education in different disciplines and modern curriculum. He had quality professors, with teachers trained abroad and foreigners, who taught disciplines underdeveloped in the country. The years between 1966 and 1984 were marked by their opacity, with some exceptions such as the development of paleomagnetism by Daniel Valencio and his disciples. The last stage starts with the return to democracy, with open and unrestricted educational contests, which allow gradually reaching the present level of development. |
