María Ximena Urbina Carrasco is a Chilean historian. She is best known for her work on the colonial era in the fjords and channels of Patagonia.[2][3] She did her undergraduate studies at the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaiso (PUCV), and her Ph.D. at the University of Seville.[1][4]
Her work has earned her various history awards.[1][4] Since 2015 she is a full member of the Naval and Maritime History Academy of Chile[5] and since 2019, of the Chilean Academy of History.[6] She is a full professor at the Institute of History of the PUCV, as well as Editor of its scientific journal named Historia 396.
Scholar career
[edit]Born in Valparaíso, she is the daughter of the Chilean historian, Rodolfo Urbina.[7]
In the early 1990s, Urbina entered the Institute of History of the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaíso (PUCV), where she received her degree as a professor and graduate.[8] Likewise, she completed her master's degree at the same faculty. Thereby, in the early-2000s, Urbina was able to complete her doctorate at her then-known University of Seville, which ended up installing her as a professor at the PUCV.
On April 9, 2019, Urbina achieved an important milestone in her career by being officially admitted to the Chilean Academy of History.[7][9] On the other hand, on January 13, 2020, the PUCV recognized her academic excellence.[10]
On August 31, 2020, Urbina participated in the release of the book General History of the Kingdom of Chile at the University of the Andes, Chile.[11] On the other hand, at the San Sebastián University (December 2020), she participated in the presentation of a book about the myth of the City of the Caesars.[12] Years later, in 2023, Dr. Urbina managed to win a Fondecyt project focused on the British-Australian navigator, Phillip Parker King.
