　　有关Habilitand位置是什么东西的回复

　　作者：汪江一

　　我对作者戳你的软肋的关于Habilitand就是博士后的表述不同意。欧洲的大
学例如法国和德国没有美国的tenure track的制度，基本上所有的教职都是终身
的，钱少一些而已。但欧洲大学为了把关教授的水平，需要申请教授职位的人提
交一篇所谓的Habilitation thesis. 按照维基百科的说法，

　　Habilitation is the highest academic qualification a scholar can 
achieve by his or her own pursuit in several European and Asian 
countries. Earned after obtaining a research doctorate, such as a PhD, 
habilitation requires the candidate to write a professorial thesis 
(often known as a Habilitationsschrift, or Habilitation thesis) based 
on independent scholarship, reviewed by and defended before an 
academic committee in a process similar to that for the doctoral 
dissertation. However, the level of scholarship has to be considerably 
higher than that required for a research doctoral (PhD) thesis in 
terms of quality and quantity, and must be accomplished independently, 
in contrast with a PhD dissertation typically directed or guided by a 
faculty supervisor。

　　我认为在写Habilitation thesis的人和美国的助理教授还是有很大类似的，
因为如果这个thesis通过，他就会获得担任终身正教授的资格。美国的AP不也是
要看文章决定去留的。

　　我觉得评价人的学术水平本身就不该看什么职位，抠这个字眼没什么意思，
看看他的文章就一目了然了。
