On the procedure for assigning academic titles. Documentation. Cloud magazine about science and technology

The Science Council under the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Council), having examined the draft Regulations on the procedure for awarding academic titles, notes that the requirements given in it (especially regarding the professorial title) are unrealistic and not always justified. The council suggests:

To article 3 add the following sentence: “The conclusions of the Commission are adopted on the basis of a collegial decision of its relevant thematic Expert Council.”

Rationale: after the reassignment of the Higher Attestation Commission from Rosobrnadzor directly to the Ministry of Education and Science, it was created Expert advice for awarding academic titles. Since then, the title of history professor has been awarded to veterinarians and mathematicians and vice versa. This Council should be closed and issues of awarding titles should be returned to the jurisdiction of the same ECs that award academic degrees.

According to Article 8 –

1. Paragraph (and) exclude. A compromise option: you can insert the phrase before paragraph (h): “performs at least one from points (h) and (i).” Rationale: such a number of textbooks is completely unnecessary. The global practice is to teach students using the best textbooks, rather than creating your own textbook for the course.
2. If paragraph (i) is retained (as an alternative), supplement its text with the requirement “published in leading publishing houses.” Rationale: Otherwise, the value of the textbook may be negligible.
3. Remove references to educational publications from point (h). Paragraph (h) should be formulated as follows: “Is the author (co-author) of at least 20 scientific papers, including patents for inventions and other intellectual property. At the same time, over the last 5 years, at least 5 peer-reviewed scientific papers must have been published in the scientific specialty specified in the attestation file of the applicant for an academic title. scientific publications"(hereinafter in the text). Justification: textbooks are already mentioned in paragraph (i), the value of educational publications is not confirmed in any way, the number “50” is probably a typo - the world’s leading scientists do not have so many scientific works (for example, in mathematics, Fields laureate S.K. Smirnov) .
4. Remove item (e). Rationale: if the applicant has fulfilled other conditions for the title of professor, why does he need the formal title of associate professor?!
5. Add a position leading researcher to point (b). Justification: this was the case in the old text and there is no need to change it. There are very few chief researchers and heads of labs; these positions are usually received towards the end of one’s career.
6. IN point (d) remove the words “in the organization that nominated him for the award of a scientific title.” Rationale: the provision allows for the representation of a scientific organization (for example, a chief researcher), but there are no teaching positions in scientific organizations.
7. IN point (g) reduce the number of defenses as a scientific supervisor or scientific consultant for employees educational organizations up to 2. Rationale: this was the old situation and there is no need to change it.

According to Article 9 –

• Remove reference to educational publications from paragraph (e) in a manner similar to paragraph 8(h).
• The number of scientific papers in paragraph (e) should be replaced by 10 (2 times less than 8(h)).
• Remove “or conducts other activities” from the preamble. Rationale: the assistant professor is obliged to give lectures!
