Chapter 667 Four Journals
Although the four major journals are authoritative, they can also be subdivided into different grades, corresponding to different academic points.
Among them, Austrian Law Review is mainly aimed at current students and young scholars. Most of the articles published are from graduate students of Austrian Law in famous universities. According to the difference in the quality of the papers, the author can get at least 20 academic points for each article published. Points, at most you can only get 39 academic points.
If the contributor thinks that the quality of his paper is very high, with more than 39 academic points, he can try to submit it to the "Journal of Austrian Law". If he successfully passes the review, he can get at least 40 academic points and at most 59 academic points after publication.
A higher-level journal than "Journal of Austrian Law" is "Academic Studies of Austrian Law". Those who are qualified to publish articles in this quarterly journal are either professors from famous schools or authoritative scholars. The academic points of each article are between 60 and 79 between.
The top journal with the highest grade is none other than "Aofa Exploration". A heavy article published on "Alpha Exploration", with a minimum of 80 academic points and a maximum of 100 points!
"Absolute Law Society" holds an "Absolute Law Forum" every year, inviting well-known scholars to participate in this academic conference that symbolizes the highest level of the industry. "Absolute Law Exploration" is actually the journal of this annual meeting, and the articles published on it , are all the most cutting-edge academic achievements in the field of Austrian law this year.
Anyone who can publish an article in this journal will definitely be invited by the Arcane Law Society to participate in the annual meeting, and may be the keynote speaker at the annual meeting. In fact, almost all the people who are qualified to publish papers in "Exploration of Arcane Law" are accomplished archmages, and there are even some legendary spellcasters.
There are no less than 30 to 40 professors and associate professors in the Institute of Advanced Law of Midgard University. Only Mr. Albert Franklin has published two papers in "Exploration of Austrian Law" and was invited to be the keynote speaker at the annual meeting.
It was these two blockbuster papers on electric spells that established Mr. Franklin's authoritative position in the arcane academic circle, and at the same time helped him win the position of dean without dispute.
Mr. Franklin is now very old, and he has publicly stated more than once that he is considering retirement, but he has been unable to find a suitable successor for a long time. If other professors want to succeed him as the dean, they must at least publish a first-authored paper in "Exploration of Advanced Law", otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.
After receiving the submitted papers, the "Absolute Law Society" will invite five scholars who have made great achievements in related fields to serve as reviewers, anonymously cross-review, and score them separately. integral.
Papers with an average score of less than 20 will be returned to the author directly and will not be published. Papers with more than 20 points will be published in journals of the corresponding level according to the grade of the score.
Not all the Austrian law majors in major colleges and universities in the world require graduate students to publish papers in the above-mentioned top journals.
For example, when Joan was studying at his alma mater, Leiden College, he had never heard of such a thing.
However, those prestigious universities that have a higher positioning for themselves have higher requirements for graduates, and often link degree certificates with academic points.
For example, if you want to successfully obtain a master's degree certificate from the Advanced Law Research Institute of Midgard University, you must have at least 40 academic points, which means you must publish two papers in the "Absolute Law Review".
This requirement is not so easy to achieve!
Most of the "old classmates" who were forced to spend four or five years in school because their academic points were not up to standard, were lucky enough to make it through, but it was really uncertain, and they had no choice but to drop out of school in the end.
Like Midgard University, there are four top universities in the world of Vales that value academic points. They are located in the Kingdom of Feizhen, the Kingdom of Ocean Blue, the Kingdom of Boswa, and the Kingdom of Canaan.
These five famous universities are precisely the five council members who joined together to create the "Vares Austrian Law Society".
The five universities represent the five major powers in the Vales world. The other four universities are the undisputed top universities in their countries, but the appearance of Midgard University on this list seems a bit unusual.
Whether judged from the perspective of school history, social influence, or faculty strength, Midgard University can only be regarded as the highest institution in the New World, but it cannot be regarded as the number one school in the Holy Ashean Empire.
In the native land of the Holy Ashan Empire, there is also a university with a greater reputation and older qualifications——Imperial Central University.
Affected by the harsh religious atmosphere in the empire, the Imperial Central University has not established an Austrian Law School so far, and of course it cannot participate in the creation of the "Vares Austrian Law Society", a supranational academic institution.
Midgard University, far away in the colony of the New World, was not affected by the religious atmosphere of the mother country, and founded the Austrian Law School at the beginning of the school.
Most of the imperial youths who were interested in learning arcane knowledge traveled across the oceans to study in the New World, which promoted the reputation of the Austrian Law School of Midgard University. Therefore, this institution located in the colony was able to replace the Imperial Central University and participate in the establishment of the "Wa Les Auxiliaries".
Dean Franklin chatted with the freshmen for nearly two hours, and when it was noon, everyone went to the buffet together.
When we arrived at the restaurant, Mr. Dean first introduced his colleagues to the students.
Austrian Law School has ten full professors and twenty-five associate professors. Before the banquet began, each full professor had 5 minutes to deliver a short speech, introducing his academic direction and the research group he chaired, and welcomed interested freshmen to join, and finally left a mailing address as usual.
At the following buffet meeting, freshmen can communicate face-to-face with professors at will, and then write a self-recommendation letter to their favorite professors. Before the end of the week at the latest, the professors will write back to clearly answer whether they intend to recruit a freshman who has recommended themselves.
If a freshman is unlucky and all communication professors are unwilling to accept him as a student, there is no need to be too frustrated. The school will try to smooth it out and arrange for this unlucky person to study under an associate professor. Although I feel a bit embarrassed in front of the professor's disciples, I still have a chance to complete my studies and get a degree.
In Joan's view, this dual-selection enrollment method is more reasonable than Leiden College's "draft" system where professors unilaterally select students - as a student, he feels that he has received what he deserves. respect.
Joan didn't communicate with any professor alone at the banquet, but just wrote down the correspondence addresses of all the professors.
After the buffet was over, Joan bought a dozen envelopes and stamps at the on-campus store, and returned to the apartment to write letters at his desk.
