Generally speaking, university lecturers are promoted from teaching assistants and are intermediate titles among university teachers. If the lecturer has certain achievements in academic and scientific research, he will be promoted to associate professor first and then to professor. However, some accompanying translators can join the ranks of university lecturers and engage in English teaching if they have the ambition to be teachers and have a master's degree or above.

In American universities, new teachers have a 6-7-year inspection period to examine their academic level and professional ethics, and then the school decides whether to award the title of professor according to their academic qualifications. In China, university teachers generally follow the path of lecturer-associate professor-professor.

In the promotion process of university lecturers, academic achievements occupy a very important part, and the teaching experience, professional skills, teaching quality and irreplaceable research fields in our school are also reference factors for promotion. Getting promoted in academic organizations is not only an affirmation of the academic ability of university lecturers, but also a need for university lecturers to realize themselves. In addition, excellent teachers, excellent papers, scholar awards and other honors are also what university lecturers need to strive for.

Generally, the process of promotion is that I first submit the application materials that meet the relevant conditions. All professors in the college have a wide-ranging discussion on whether the applicant has reached the level of the applied position, which is called "peer review", which is approved by democratic voting, and then approved by the academic Committee and the school president.

In addition, university lecturers can also develop in the direction of researchers, work in major research institutes and engage in more intensive academic or disciplinary research.
