After arriving in Australia in 1882 to take up the position of Assistant Geological Surveyor for the Geological Survey of New South Wales, he was Professor of Geology at the University of Sydney for 35 years from 1891. His geological interests were varied and included coal deposits, glaciation and the subsidence of coral reefs. In 1907 to 1909 he participated in the second British Antarctic Expedition and led the first party to reach the south magnetic pole. During WWI he played a key role on the formation of the Australian Mining Corps and served with the Corps. David was active in scientific organisations, being president of the Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science; president of both the Royal and Linnean Societies of New South Wales, and the first President of the Australian National Research Council. David has been commemorated in a number of ways including the Edgeworth David Medal (awarded by the Royal Society of New South Wales since 1948), the mineral Davidite, and the Edgeworth David Base, a summer station in Antarctica. 1880 1880 Education - Bachelor of Arts, (BA (hons)), University of Oxford 1882 1882 Life event - Settled in Australia 1882 1891 Career position - Assistant Government Geologist, New South Wales 1888 Career event - Original [founding] member, Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 1891 1924 Career position - Professor of Geology, University of Sydney 1892 1892 Career position - President, Section C (Geology and Mineralogy), Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science Meeting, Hobart 1893 1895 Career position - President, Linnean Society of New South Wales 1895 1895 Career position - President, Royal Society of New South Wales 1895 1895 Career position - President, Section C (Geology and Mineralogy), Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science Meeting, Brisbane 1899 1899 Award - Bigsby Medal, Geological Society of London 1900 1934 Award - Fellow, The Royal Society, London (FRS) 1902 1904 Career position - President, Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 1907 1909 Career position - Member, second British Antarctic Expedition 1909 1909 Award - Polar Medal: Silver 1907-09 (Chief Scientific Officer - Shackleton's 'Nimrod's' Furthest South Expedition) 1909 1909 Award - Mueller Medal, Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 22 May 1909 22 May 1909 Award - Honorary Member, Northern Engineering Institute of New South Wales 1910 1910 Award - Doctor of Science (DSc), honoris causa, University of Oxford 1910 1910 Career position - President, Royal Society of New South Wales 1910 1910 Award - Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) - Professor of Geology at Sydney University 1911 1913 Career position - President, Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 1914 1914 Career position - Vice-President, Sections C (Geology) and E (Geography), British Association for the Advancement of Science Meeting 1915 1915 Award - Wollaston Medal, Geological Society of London 1915 1919 Military service - First World War.
