The first thousand three hundred and sixty chapters are awarded the Royal Professor Bachelor
Generally speaking, after graduation, students can stay in school or graduate according to their own wishes. They can do whatever they like. However, it is not easy to stay in school. You need to find a professor based on your research direction and pass the exam.
After passing the professor's assessment, students who become professors will continue to study in school and serve as lecturers in the school, teaching students who have not yet graduated.
These graduates who stay in the school, even if they are lecturers, are also students of their professors, and they can only be awarded the title of associate professor after their research has produced results and been recognized.
As for the promotion from associate professor to full professor, it also depends on academic achievements.
So far, there are only 43 associate professors and 23 full professors at the Royal Institute of Technology, and these 66 professors are all the accumulation of the Royal Institute of Technology in more than ten years.
As for those at the lecturer level, there are more of them, about 300 people in total.
The entire Royal Institute of Technology has only about 400 lecturers and professors combined, and almost every one of these 400 people is the most valuable scientific research talent in the empire.
Well, it is worth noting that the title of professor at the Royal Institute of Technology is different from the title of professor in ordinary universities. This title is not a job title at the Royal Institute of Technology, but a formal official position. The full name of this position is "Empire"
"Royal Professor Bachelor", the meaning of this position is that Li Xuan authorized them to teach the princes, and they have grades. Associate professors are of the third grade, and full professors are of the third grade, and they can enjoy relevant administrative treatment.
Of course, in fact, the title obtained by the professors of the Royal Institute of Technology is just a special honorary title, and it is impossible to say that they actually teach the princes. This is just like the many ministers and lecturers of the Hanlin Academy.
Just like us, this is just an honorary title, and it does not mean that they will actually teach the princes.
Besides, although Li Xuan is a time traveler, his genes are of an ordinary level and he really cannot give birth to a monster with an IQ of around 200!
Li Xuan knew very well that with the IQs of his sons, there was no need for professors from the Royal Institute of Technology to teach them the most cutting-edge science and technology.
Therefore, the 'honorary professorship' is just an honorary and fictitious position. It is almost the same concept as the imperial readers and lecturers in the Hanlin Academy. It is just to give these professors a more decent status and a higher status.
grade.
And in the Royal Institute of Technology, let alone professors, even the freshmen of the Royal Institute of Technology have high-level official status!
In fact, not only the Royal Institute of Technology, but also professors and teachers in other government-run schools belong to the ranks of officials. Ordinary full professors at Jinling University will be awarded the fourth rank.
Even teachers in ordinary local government-run primary schools have a grade. Although they are only low-level grades such as eighth grade and ninth grade, no matter what, they are of high grade and belong to the group that eats the royal food of the country.
However, the teacher grades of ordinary government-run universities, middle schools, primary schools and other government-run schools belong to the education system, which is a different system from ordinary administrative officials.
The education system is the same as the enterprise system under the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises. It has its own set of evaluation standards for teachers. Their grades only enjoy corresponding treatment and do not have political power. It is impossible to say that a professor with a fourth grade is just a teacher.
He will be transferred to serve as the prefect of a prefecture.
This system was created by Li Xuan with reference to the establishment of institutions and civil servants in later generations. Its purpose was more to improve the social status of teachers without affecting the administrative system.
After all, in the Tang Dynasty, officials were still the main body. Those teachings in the pre-Ming Dynasty all belonged to the ranks of officials. In today's Tang Dynasty, even an ordinary clerk who works for the government belongs to the ranks of officials.
Nowadays, for the teachers you have created in various schools, it would be unreasonable not to give them an official status.
The special system of the Royal Institute of Technology means that unless they drop out, very few graduates go out to start a business in society. Occasionally, there are graduates who do not stay at school to teach, and usually directly enter higher education institutions.
Take a job, such as going to another university or normal college to serve as a department chair, president, etc.
But at that time, there were actually five graduates who were unwilling to become professors or anything like that. They were willing to give up the official status of fourth- and third-grade people and run out to start a business. This shocked a lot of people's jaws and also attracted countless businessmen.
invest.
Since its establishment, AIA Company has had a core R&D team and abundant resources. It quickly launched an improved loom production line and seized the market. In order to avoid being suppressed by machinery companies such as Zhaoqing Machinery Company in the early stage, they started from the very beginning.
It focuses on the market north of the Yangtze River, and even registered the company in the Tianjin Business Zone.
What’s interesting is that their R&D institution is still located in Jinling.
There is nothing wrong to do. Although Jinling City has the largest number of universities in the empire, and a large number of talents emerge every year, it is impossible not to set up a research and development institution nearby to recruit talents.
AIA's misaligned competition allowed them to develop rapidly, and gradually extended their product lines to numerous textile equipment and other industrial equipment. Finally, they obtained steam engine production authorization and became the third largest steam engine manufacturer in the country.
In the past year, this company has become the biggest competitor of Zhaoqing Machinery Company in the market north of the Yangtze River!
At this time, the person in charge of Tianjin AIA Company was standing next to Liu Ping!
This guy's name is Dong Haiqing, a man Liu Ping could not wait to throw into the Pacific Ocean!
This guy is not a member of the core entrepreneurial team of AIA, but he has been the actual manager of AIA for so many years. He is a member of the core entrepreneurial team and is only responsible for research and development. Running a company is not their strong point, so they hired outsiders.
to run the company's business.
The person who was invited was Dong Haiqing, who was quite famous in the business world. Before the empire had an official stock exchange, during the financial crisis in the gold mines, he worked in a fund company and wasted no time.
, became rich overnight in the securities market, but the result was even more tragic. Because he used inside information, maliciously manipulated stocks, embezzled investors' profits, etc., it was basically a crime prohibited by imperial law in the securities industry. He was capable.
He did it all, even those who couldn't do it!
As a result, he was caught by the Economic Crimes Division of the Shanghai Patrol Bureau and sentenced to three years in prison. He was also banned from engaging in the securities industry.
After he was released from prison, he continued to work hard in business. It has to be said that this man can really work hard, and his business talent is beyond words. He finally joined Zhaoqing Machinery Company and served as the manager of the Shanghai branch and concurrently as the general manager.
The company's deputy general manager.
Then, he became a traitor and took almost the entire Shanghai branch management team to Tianjin AIA Company and became the general manager of AIA Company. Not only did he take people with him, he also brought with him the accumulated experience of Zhaoqing Machinery Company over the years.
Various management and production experience.
As a result, AIA Company became the biggest competitor of Zhaoqing Machinery Company!
Perhaps sensing Liu Ping's malicious look, Dong Haiqing also turned around and smiled!
Liu Ping cursed secretly in his heart: I am laughing at you for being paralyzed, you traitor!
It is worth noting that this job-hopping incident led to years of litigation over various patents between Zhaoqing Machinery Company and AIA Company, which have not been fought to this day. It is foreseeable that it is almost impossible for both parties to determine the winner.
The fight may last forever.
This lawsuit also indirectly contributed to the introduction of a new law by the Ministry of Justice, which allows companies to sign non-competition agreements with some important core employees to prevent the leakage of business secrets. It also stipulates that if companies want to sign non-competition agreements
If there is an agreement, then the employee must be given more salary and various compensations, otherwise, it will not be approved by the court!
Well, yes, the signing of a non-competition agreement requires court approval before it can take effect!
If the enterprise and its employees sign it on their own, but it is not approved by the court, it will be invalid!
If a company could sign such an agreement with ordinary employees casually, wouldn't it mean that a lot of ordinary employees would be tied up to death? This is something that the official level of the empire does not want to see.
The non-competition agreement hinders people's freedom of employment to a certain extent. All citizens of the empire have the right to free employment. Others have no right to stop people from doing whatever they want to do.
Nowadays, if a company wants to restrict employees' free employment rights, it naturally needs to pay a high price and obtain court approval.
The conflict between Dong Haiqing and Liu Ping is a conflict between Tianjin Youbang Machinery Company and Zhaoqing Machinery Company. It is also a conflict between established enterprises and new enterprises. Now, this conflict will also erupt in the high-pressure steam engine project.
As for how many sparks it can trigger, it's unknown.
Li Xuan doesn't care about what his subjects think. Now he only cares about one thing, and that is the mass production prototype of the high-pressure steam engine!
As for the costs, research and development expenses, and market competition that the courtiers were concerned about, Li Xuan didn't care. They were all enterprises of the empire anyway. Whoever produced them was the same to Li Xuan.
He only needed to see high-pressure steam engines being moved onto battleships, onto trains, and into major factories, injecting new impetus into the empire's industrial development.
After the group entered the building, not long after, Li Xuan saw the prototype of the high-pressure steam engine!
This steam engine was completely different from the many steam engines he had seen before. The biggest difference was that it was small!
Small size and light weight are the biggest advantages of high-pressure steam engines compared to low-pressure steam engines at present, and they are also the advantages that people value most!
Li Xuan was thoughtful when he saw such a small steam engine, while others were even more surprised when they saw it!
