First, the origin of the bachelor's degree

The ancient bachelor's title, which first appeared in the Zhou Dynasty, refers to the aristocratic children who studied, and later evolved into official names, and was widely called learned people and scholars. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, the bachelor officially became the official title with literature and skills dedicated to the imperial court.

In the Tang Dynasty, the status of bachelor was greatly improved, and he could even participate in the state affairs. Among them, the head of the Hanlin bachelor's degree is the emperor's personal adviser and secretary, also known as the "internal phase." In the Song Dynasty, all those who were awarded the "Bachelor of Hanlin" had the hope of becoming prime ministers. In the Qing dynasty, the position of university students was the first among civil servants.

Second, the origin of academicians

Academician originated from the academy, a hero who died in ancient Greek legend to save Athens from disaster. In memory of this wise and brave hero, the Greeks built a quiet garden named after the Academy.

During the 9 16 years after the establishment of the park, scholars who were moved by the wisdom and courage of the academy gave lectures in the park and carried out spontaneous academic activities. Therefore, many academic groups later called themselves "Academy".

1666, the Royal French Academy of Sciences was established, and the famous scientists working in this institute were called "Academy of Sciences" for the first time. Since then, the Royal Society of Britain, the Royal Academy of Prussia and the Royal Academy of Petersburg have successively used "academicians".

The National Academy of Sciences named the country's most outstanding scientists with the title of "Member of the National Academy of Sciences". "Academician" has become the highest honorary title awarded to scientists by academic circles.
