It's worth looking into the issue, but maybe they don't hold a ceremony for doctoral students every time, maybe in the doctorate the length is random, so different cohorts graduate together?
As for the potential for the next fifty years - it is dwindling due to the decline in the level of education.
I had the privilege of participating in the graduation ceremony of the Faculty of Exact Sciences at Tel Aviv University. My son was among the graduates. The number of graduates was a little less than 700.
In my rough estimate, the total number of graduates at Tel Aviv University
is approximately 10 times (life sciences, spirituality, society and medicine). In the best case, the rate of PhD graduates does not exceed 4% of the rate of bachelor's and master's degree graduates. Reasonable.
The biggest and most important question, for the purpose of evaluating the quality of education in Israel, is what is the average percentage of bachelor's degree graduates in each year. This is, in my opinion, the most important gauge for evaluating our social and economic resilience potential for the next 50 years.
I wonder what all this means?
Are we with the book?
Or can anyone get a doctorate today?
It warms the heart to see that there are more women than men among the PhD recipients, and also that in the natural sciences there is absolute equality. This is a real victory for us Israelis and for the academy on the other hand. As someone who did his PhD specifically in the natural sciences, I am happy to see that there is quite a bit of research in the humanities and I hope that this field will receive more budgets and funding. It's not for nothing that the amount of research in the humanities is half of the amount in the natural sciences (according to this article in the context of doctoral degree recipients).
Likewise, the same girl (24) and guy (27) who managed to finish their studies so early should be praised and glorified. Great respect is also given to the graduate duo (72-73) and their vision in science and study for the sake of science and study and not in order to get jobs and higher salaries.
All the best, they will multiply and flourish and flourish. We are here in the state we are in today, quite a lot thanks to you, precious book people.
