Bio
Professor Jorg Imberger has clearly bruised a few egos in a 50-year academic career which has been hanging by a thread after the axing of his internationally acclaimed Centre for Water Research at the University of WA.
Professor Imberger can be a blunt instrument and is known for speaking his mind, but that is what universities used to be all about.
And maybe it’s what is really behind the apparent academic lynching of this 72-year-old winner of the world’s biggest award in his field, the Stockholm Water Prize.
Professor Imberger doesn’t suffer fools — or even very smart people acting like fools — lightly.
After three months of secrecy, UWA has started justifying what has appeared to be the case since last October: that it intended to close the centre and as leverage to that process pursue Imberger on historic disciplinary matters not previously raised.
A UWA statement confirming the closure was, in itself, remarkable because everything in it is either contradicted or brought into serious question by CWR’s submission to the review of its functions. It exposed a curious situation in which UWA prefers its academics to sit on Australian government advisory boards rather than conduct the extensive international collaborations which have brought CWR its global reputation.
