  • Higher Education for Science and Engineering
    Appendix C. — Science and Engineering Graduate Study and Credentials in Other Nations The U.S. system of university-based graduate education, combining research and training, is admired throughout the world for the quality of researchers it produces. However, it is not the only model for training and certification of researchers. Other nations take different approaches to training graduate-level scientists and engineers for academic and industry research and development (R&D), reflecting major social, administrative, legislative, and economic differences in university systems, in where and how R&D is conducted and funded, and where scientists and engineers are employed in . that country.1 Higher education in other countries generally is more science- and engineering-intensive, particularly in Japan, Soviet Union, and West Germany. There is no “best” model for graduate education. The U.S. university system is decentralized, with a large high-quality private sector; many other nations have much more centralized systems. Most developed countries have reformed university education in the past decade, often modeling U.S. successes. These reforms have been driven and accompanied by a move to mass higher education, problems of overexpansion in the face of declining young populations, worries about quality, and retrenching in tight budgets. Japan. 2 Although Japan awards more science and engineering doctorates on a per capita basis than does the United States, far fewer of these are obtained through formal university graduate studies. Students follow two paths to the doctorate. Students may earn a “course doctorate” (katei hakushi) in one of the major universities, similar to the United States, with courses, 5 years or so of research, and an oral defense of the dissertation.

  • Doctorate 1 Doctorate
    Doctorate 1 Doctorate A doctorate is an academic degree or professional degree that, in most countries, qualifies the holder to teach at the university level in the specific field of his or her degree, or to work in a specific profession. The research doctorate, or the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) and its equivalent titles, represents the highest academic qualification. While the structure of U.S. doctoral programs is more formal and complex than in some other systems, the research doctorate is not awarded for the preliminary advanced study that leads to doctoral candidacy, but rather for successfully completing and defending the independent research presented in the form of the doctoral dissertation (thesis). Several first-professional degrees use the term “doctor” in their title, such as the Juris Doctor and the US version of the Doctor of Medicine, but these degrees do not universally contain an independent research component or always require a dissertation (thesis) and should not be confused with PhD degrees or other research doctorates.[1] In fact many universities offer Ph.D followed by a professional doctorate degree or joint Ph.D. with the professional degree (most often Ph.D. work comes sequential to the professional degree): eg. Ph.D. in law after J.D. or equivalent [2][3][4][5] in physical therapy after DPT,[6][7] in pharmacy after DPharm.[8][9] Often such professional degrees are refereed as entry level doctorate program [10][11][12] and Ph.D as postprofessional doctorate. In some countries, the highest degree in a given field is called a terminal degree, although this is by no means universal (the term is not in general use in the UK, for example), practice varies from country to country.

    Dear professor N.M.Kropachev! By order of the Academic Secretary of St. Petersburg State University on June 23, 2017 (Приказ Ученого секретаря СПбГУ от 23.06.2017), Mr. Gerloch (Czech Republic) was included in the dissertation council for the defense of the thesis of M.A. Kapustina. https://disser.spbu.ru/files/phd spsu/7039 l.pdf Professor A.

But Mr. Gerloch academic status is not consistent with paragraph 10 of Annex № 2 to the Order of St. Petersburg State University of 01.09.2016 № 6821/1 (пункту 10 Приложения № 2 к Приказу СПбГУ от 01.09.2016 № 6821/1), because: according to paragraph 2 of Article 6.2 of the Federal Law "On Science and State Scientific and Technical Policy" of 23.08.1996 No. 127 -FZ (пункт 2 статьи 6.2 Федерального закона «О науке и государственной научно-технической политике» от 23.08.1996 № 127-ФЗ), as well as Article 5 of the Protocol between the Government of the USSR and the Government of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic on the equivalence of documents on education, academic degrees and titles issued or appropriated in the USSR and Czechoslovakia of 6 June 1972 (статья 5 Протокола между Правительством СССР и Правительством ЧССР об эквивалентности документов об образовании, ученых степеней и званий, выдаваемых или присваиваемых в СССР и ЧССР, от 6 июня 1972 г.), which remains in effect, Mr. Gerloch could be recognized as a person with candidate of science degree and A.Gerloch doesn't have a scientific degree which is provided with the same academic and (or) professional rights as to the doctor of sciences in RF.
