announcement of the train conductor: "Ladies and gentlemen, in a few minutes we reach Graz main station we stay there for about 15 minutes you have the opportunity to graduate ....".. Something like that was a joke, many years ago made the rounds.
"Unlike an exam, master's or Ph.D. work, which is formed under the guidance of teachers and to reflect generally the current state of research, is the dissertation or thesis an autonomous scientific work. It is usually under supervision of a Professor or lecturer (traditional doctor father, and sometimes doctor mother, rather Mentor (in) "or" tutor (in) ") can be carried out at an institute, but also made" outside "the university and brought outside." ( quote Wikipedia , Dissertation )
"The Promotion (Latin promotio," carriage ") is the academic degree of" doctor "or" Doctor "[1] in a specific field of study and serves as proof of ability to in-depth academic work. It is based on an independent scientific work, the dissertation, and a is an oral examination (viva [2], disputation or Colloquium). "
" For the overall assessment of a scientific thesis different "grades". "Summa cum laude is the highest award and it means" with highest praise, with distinction, "awarded" for outstanding performance, ......" (quotations Wikipedia, PhD )
Currently, a doctoral dissertation under heavy fire and suffered the Internet stocks. This was by interested parties separately created a website called " Guttenplag ." Defence Guttenberg in 2006 to work at the University of Bayreuth presented, which was awarded the doctorate in 2007 with summa cum laude. Managers at the time was the promotion examination about 73 years Professor Peter Häberle. The same now stressed that Mr. Guttenberg was a wonder boy. "Absurd," these are allegations of plagiarism!
Whoever wants really wonder sometimes how different they can still perceive the world, should visit the Internet pillory " Guttenplag ! A recent example of the workings of "swarm intelligence" in the fight against plagiarism
How reported Berliner Morgenpost , there are references to alleged plagiarism, 270 pages, that is, about two-thirds The text pages of the thesis of "Gutti". Here was also of advice from the Scientific Services of the Bundestag resorted without citing correctly. ( GuttenPlag Wiki interim results ,

The correct quotation is one of the basic conditions for scientific work. In light of the findings of "Guttenplag" It strikes me as quite a thing that a dissertation was knitted in this way also praised as a "summa cum laude. It has something of a " Gschmäckle . This concerns not only the mE Mr. Guttenberg, but his supervisor, the former audit committee and the appropriate university! So throwing a shadow on the "system".
mE A good article about "Guttenberg and the plagiarism allegations: the primacy of science" has been published by Ali Arbia at the science blogs!
How it all began, namely with a search of the Law Professor Andreas Fischer-Lescano via Google, read here!
insights into the sometimes quite colorful in higher education can also be obtained on the "Mafia research "
What will ultimately mean politically is one thing. As the University of Bayreuth and Mr. Guttenberg explain the findings (defend ;-) Are), I find that an interesting lesson in "credibility of academic life."
What distinguishes itself from a job as scientific work? And when it may have the distinction "summa cum laude? Too many questions ..... Is not always politically relevant! Or
is clear that a noble KTzG anyway can graduate with SCL? For as we know, "noblesse oblige"!
This article is of course no independent Foschungsarbeit, it contains not even a self-made image or video, not a single footnote ;-), no, it is based almost entirely on quotes, and from links to various web pages! (Oops, I hope I've forgotten any!)
