Chapter 166: Trainee Scientist

However, students have become a profession, which is an incredible thing for people living on the earth, especially for some people who are over forty years old and have long left the student stage. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

And the existence of the "student" profession will be a norm for a long time. This kind of normality seems to be a bit deformed, as if it is artificially "ripening" the generation of scientists, but if you consider the current situation of the Earth Fleet, and the existence of this social role has its rationality, perhaps it will not be so strange.

If it weren't for the fact that the external pressure was too great, why would the Science and Technology Committee resort to such a solution, which would obviously put a heavy burden on the finances of the Earth Fleet!

This kind of stipend student has another even better name - trainee scientist! Trainee scientists do not have a school system, when they leave the school, when they will officially go to work and obtain the permission of scientists!

However, it is not so easy to successfully advance from a trainee scientist to a scientist.

Theoretically, in order to make the limited funds more worthwhile, this profession should be more of a survival of the fittest, because only by presenting a pyramidal structure with the right proportions can the whole group be put under more pressure and qualified talents can be selected.

To this end, the fleet implements a strict academic hierarchy.

The Science and Technology Committee divides each discipline into five levels, from the first level of the discipline to the fifth level of the discipline, and the official organization of the fleet once a year is divided into two disciplines: theory and practice, at which time any registered trainee scientist can sign up for reference, and the examination plan stipulates that each trainee scientist must refer to it once every three years.

The pass rate of the annual examination is 30%, and those who pass are promoted to one level, and those who have not taken any of the examinations within three years will be automatically reduced by one level.

Although it is a one-level reduction, it is the treatment of trainee scientists, not the difficulty of the exam, and the next time you take the exam, you will still take the exam at the same level as the original subject.

In addition, due to the reasonable allocation of resources, each trainee scientist can only stay in the same discipline level for nine years, and those who stay for nine years and do not advance will automatically withdraw from the ranks of trainee scientists and obtain a graduation certificate at the current level.

In other words, trainee scientists are actually a path to becoming a qualified scientist, with the property of providing "vocational education" for society.

If a Graduate Scientist is not eliminated in the middle of the process, he or she can be promoted to a qualified Scientist within five years at the earliest, and because he can stay at the same level for up to nine years, if someone happens to be promoted at the last minute of each level, he or she can remain a Graduate Scientist for up to forty-five years.

Of course, some people will scoff at it, and it is not bad to receive a trainee scientist allowance for 45 years, which is worth the hard work of ordinary workers, but the problem is that the pass rate of each level of promotion is only 30%, and it is not easy to receive a trainee scientist allowance for 45 consecutive years.

Just like in ancient China, there were old talents who rushed to take the exam every year, but they didn't get into the middle of the year every year, maybe when he was lifted in the middle of the year, it was the time for him to enter the coffin, and of course there were only a few people who were unwilling to leave on the exam.

After all, who doesn't want to get a high-level trainee scientist certificate early, or directly get the status of a scientist and go to society with honor?

But then again, even after 45 years, the trainee scientist who came out like this, although he wasted too much time, he himself was still the best of the best.

The starting point of the fleet grading examination is to train trainee scientists, not everyone can become qualified scientists, increasing the number of trainee scientists, but also improving the scientific literacy of the entire fleet to a certain extent, which is very beneficial to the training of the next generation of the fleet.

And from a long-term perspective, the life span of human beings cannot always stay at the current level, forty-five years may seem very long now, but from the perspective of the advanced civilization of the universe, perhaps their compulsory education is far more than forty-five years!

When the Earth Fleet reaches that level -- compulsory education alone will reach more than 40 years, and then the special setting of "trainee scientists" that requires one level at a time will probably be abolished naturally.

After sending Rebrap away, Koliwicz shook his head with a smile and said to Rachel: "This Pakistani guy has a very special momentum, and maybe he will have great achievements in the future." ”

"Father, do you really think so?" Rachel was a little surprised, she had a good impression of Rebrapu, knowing that he was a warm-hearted person, and sincerely hoped that he would succeed.

"Hehe, intuition!" Koliwicz said with a light smile.

"Well, Father, maybe this guy will be your student in a few months!"

Rachel laughed and made a joke, then took the materials sent by Rebrape and went back to her room, and then she had to do a serious review, for the position of the staff of the administrative hall on the seventh floor, she was bound to win.

At this time, there were too many people like Rachel and Rebrape in the whole fleet, and some of them already had very good foundations, and this recruitment of the Executive Hall and various universities just gave them the opportunity to play.

Of course, the people who meet at the right time are a minority after all, and more of them are mediocre, after all, this world is made up of the vast majority of mediocre people and a small number of geniuses.

The reason why mediocre people are mediocre is determined by innate aptitude on the one hand, but more importantly, it is because it is much easier to accept mediocrity than to pursue excellence!

Spending a small amount of physical energy, spending a small amount of mental power, and living a stable life sounds exciting.

Many of them were lazy and lazy when they were on Earth, and they may never have thought that they would one day become so focused on one thing, but the environment can change a person the most, and after arriving at the Earth Fleet, the objective environment makes them find that they have changed, and the sword hanging over their heads is a kind of whip to the entire fleet, so that they are always cautious, and they have begun to have goals and pursuits.

As the French writer Roland said:

"There is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to recognize the truth of life and still love it."

As the days passed, just as the inhabitants of the ship were busy adjusting to their lives and preparing for the large-scale examinations that would soon be held, the Earth fleet had already skimmed the orbit of Saturn, and there it had integrated various material ships of the sub-base headed by the "Meteorite", and took the Meteorite with them and headed towards the outer periphery of the solar system.

Thea appears on the screen every day, broadcasting the voyage of the fleet.

Therefore, in their spare time, the inhabitants of the fleet will also pay attention to these topics that the leaders of the fleet would only care about, and some of them are quite wicked, and they know everything about when and where the fleet should pass.

After that, it successfully skimmed the orbit of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, and finally completed the last material integration in the solar system at Sedna, the "outer Neptune celestial body" 518 astronomical units away from the Earth.

At this time, it was already the fifteenth day after the departure of the Earth Fleet, and after completing the integration of the last supplies, the relevant resource ships that had joined along the way were abandoned again.

At this time, the Earth Fleet had reached 0.3 times the speed of light, and the fleet full of supplies continued to accelerate as planned. (To be continued.) )
