He joined the University of Adelaide in 1905 as Lecturer, being Professor of Geology and Mineralogy from 1921 to1952. During his pioneering research on the geology of South Australia and New South Wales he engaged in extensive field work, this also being a feature of his teaching. Mawson was the first to identify radium-bearing ore in Australia. He was particularly interested in the scientific exploration of Antarctica and participated in three expeditions to the continent. During the third British Antarctic Expedition 1907 - 1909 under Ernest Shackleton, Mawson acted as surveyor, cartographer and magnetician. The Australasian Antarctic Expedition 1911 - 1914 led by Mawson was, although struck by tragedy, one of the most successful expeditions of the period. He also led the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition of 1929 - 1931, during which more coastline was discovered and more territory charted than in previous expeditions. Mawson received numerous awards for his Antarctic work. He was an active participant in scientific societies, holding office as President of the Royal Society of South Australia and the Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science. 1901 1901 Education - Bachelor of Engineering (BE), University of Sydney 1903 1903 Career position - Expedition to the New Hebrides 1904 1904 Education - Bachelor of Science (BSc), University of Sydney 1905 1920 Career position - Lecturer in Mineralogy and Petrology, University of Adelaide 1907 1909 Career position - Surveyor, cartographer and magnetician, third British Antarctic Expedition 1908 1908 Award - Antarctic Medal, Royal Geographical Society, England 1909 1909 Education - Doctor of Science (DSc), University of Adelaide 1909 1909 Award - Polar Medal (Silver) - Shackleton's 'Nimrod's' Furthest South Expedition 1911 1914 Career position - Leader, Australasian Antarctic Expedition 1913 1958 Award - Life Fellow, Royal Geographical Society 1914 1914 Award - Polar Medal (Silver) - Mawson's Australian Expedition 1914 1914 Award - Knight Bachelor (Kt) - In recognition of services to polar exploration 1915 1915 Award - Founder's Medal, Royal Geographical Society, United Kingdom 1915 1915 Award - Helen Culver Gold Medal, Chicago Geographical Society, U.S.A. 1915 1915 Award - Silver Wolf of Boy Scouts, The Scouts Association 1916 1916 Award - David Livingston Centenary Medal, American Geographical Society, U.S.A. 1916 1919 Military service - War service in Europe 1919 Career position - Foundation Councillor (Geography), Australian National Research Council 1919 1919 Award - Bigsby Medal, Geological Society of London, United Kingdom 1920 1920 Career position - President, Section E (Geology), Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 1920 1920 Award - Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) 1920 1952 Career position - Professor of Geology, University of Adelaide 1923 1958 Award - Fellow, The Royal Society, London (FRS) 1924 1925 Career position - President, Royal Society of South Australia 1926 1926 Career position - President, Section E (Geology), Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science 1927 1927 Award - Gold Medal for Oceanographical Research, Paris Geographical Society, France 1928 1928 Award - Nachtigal gold medal, Gessellschaft für Erdkunde, Germany 1929 1931 Career position - Leader, British, Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition (BANZARE) 1930 1930 Award - Mueller Medal, Australasian Association for Advancement of Science 1931 1931 Award - Polar Medal (Bronze) 1931 1931 Award - Sir Joseph Verco Medal, Royal Society of South Australia 1931 1931 Award - Founder's Medal, Royal Geographical Society of Australia Queensland, Australia 1931 1931 Award - John Lewis Gold Medal, Royal Geographical Society of Australasia, South AustralianBranch 1932 1937 Career position - President, Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science (ANZAAS) 1935 1935 Award - King George V Silver Jubilee Medal 1936 1936 Award - Clarke Medal, Royal Society of New South Wales, Australia 1937 1937 Career event - Fellow, Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science (ANZAAS) 11 May 1937 11 May 1937 Award - King George VI Coronation Medal 1939 1939 Award - Foreign Member, Swedish Society for Anthropology and Geography 1945 1945 Career Position - President, Royal Society of South Australia 1950 1950 Award - Gold Medal, Royal Society of South Australia 1950 1950 Award - John Lewis Gold Medal, Royal Geographical Society of Australasia, South Australian Branch 1952 1952 Award - Doctor of Science (DSc), honoris causa, University of Sydney 1953 1953 Career event - Petitioner for the Australian Academy of Science 1953 1953 Award - Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Medal 1954 1958 Award - Founding Fellow, Australian Academy of Science (FAA) Hurley, James Francis (Frank) (1885 - 1962)
