[edit] Outside of Academia

By "accredited institutions outside of Academia" I meant "otraslevye NII". I find it stricken out. I thought it's notable. Any reason of removal?

IMO one could only defend under the patronage of:

  1. Educational Instituion (University, Institute)
  2. any Institute of the Academy of Sciences
  3. "otraslevoy NII" such as NII under "MinSredMash", "MinStroy", etc.

If it could be said better, please do. But we should say it in some way, I think. --Irpen 19:25, 24 September 2005 (UTC)


The following lines were removed from the article:

A little Comment from a Master of Arts(from FSU): the fact is that a Candidate of Science Degree is not equal to Ph.D. at all the degree which is equal is a Doctor of Science Degeree the Soviet Propagada always said that "Candidate of Science = Ph.D and Ph.D is not a true Doctor Degree" just in order to say "our Doctors are smarter" and unfortunetlly conisderable amount of people in fromer Soviet Union (FSU) Countries still believe that Ph.D. is not a true Doctoral Degree :( whoever the major difference between MSc and Candidate of Science is necessity of a Candidate Dissertation as far as I know the Soviet (as well as Tsar's Russian) educational system was made on the base of midevial German so a person graduated from a high school did not have any degree like a bachelor (the system also did not have division of schools to primary and secondary)this graduated person may continue to study in order to get a Candidate Degree

...as these claims are very disputable and doubtful. --V1adis1av 16:34, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
