Blog your way up. Not

Update terkini:
Bibik baru masih belum datang.
Saya terpaksa ambil cuti minggu ini.
Wedding preparations coupled with lack of help at home telah menggugat this juggling act! Kerja ofisku tak siap, dah lepas deadline which is soooo bad!
This draft needs to be published sebelum menjadi totally basi ;D


Tahukah anda bahawa Professor Madya atau Professor itu merupakan pangkat di menara gading? Ini bermakna jika anda telah berpencen, anda tidak boleh lagi menggunakan gelaran tersebut di hadapan nama anda. Tetapi jika anda mempunyai PhD, maka gelaran Dr. itu kekal ke akhir hayat.

Saya pun baru sahaja mendapat tahu apabila nama bapa saya pada kad jemputan kahwin adik menjadi pendek daripada yg biasa saya lihat.

Mari kita lihat contoh gelaran2 menarik pensyarah wanita yang boleh dapati di akademia:
1. Dr. Suraya Abdul Rashid.
2. Associate Professor Dr. Suraya Abdul Rashid.
3. Professor Dr. Suraya Abdul Rashid.
4. Datin Professor Dr. Suraya Abdul Rashid.
5. Datin Paduka Professor Dr. Suraya Abdul Rashid.

Saya suka yang nombor 5 tu hehehe sebab unlike no 4, it does not depend on your hubby to be awarded a Datuk ;) Oh, the one we have in UPM is sooo sweet. She once commented to me at a dinner table that she liked my eye lashes. How? Cairnya aku!!! And au natural ye, no falsies thank you.

Being an academician is unique because unlike in other government sectors, eligibility for promotion does not depend on availability of the post. This means that theoretically it is really entirely up to you to plan as to how and when you can climb the ladder.

Take one of the, if not the youngest professor in UPM. Mendapat pangkat Professor sekitar umur 37an beberapa tahun yang lalu. Saya rasa Prof Adzir tak marah kot saya tampal iklan ini di sini. After all it is his inaugural lecture ~ a public lecture that marks the epitome of ones career in academia. You are all invited by the way hehehe



Its all about publication, publication, publication people which requires proper planning, management and execution. And certainly less time blogging *Nangis*

YM, I tergezut gila baca post ni. Prof Adzir is my hubby's BEST FRIEND for life. His wife kak Ain is one of my best friend in the world. We all pernah duduk together masa di US dulu and we even stayed in the same house. Tidur sebumbung, duduk serumah. Imagine how close we are. Everytime I pi KL I would hang out at their house...for sure. Keciknya dunia........

alololo...kesian betul.... haruslah bz banget kak sue..

ehem2...if datin paduka means ur husband must be datuk paduka la kan? :))

screamingmommy said...

wow..mcm tu rupanya;) and also for datin : u mean datin paduka is anugerah on its own? I've always thought no anugerah as Datin be it paduka or what..it has to be datuk/dato'...good info.

babe, i like the Datuk Paduka Datin Sri Prof. Dr Suraya Abdul Rashid, boleh? hehehe. heavy-laden. kau takpe can be fofular. aku nak berangan pun tak halal pasal sure nanti arch-enemies jual cerita kat media LOL. although i quite fancy my name with a certain title at the front. kalau aku nak jadi YM camane...?

Yummy Mummy said...

C, which uni are you at babe?

Lady, thank you hun.

Fiza, walaupun wanita pun boleh dapat pangkat Datuk/Dato', so far I tak penah encounter pulak in academia. Maybe depends on negeri mana yg bagi? Dunno. Datin Paduka dianugerahkan based on your contributions to research and society, independent of husband. Of course la kalau husband dpt, then it is automatic hehehe.

Ica, laaa ye ke? Harus! Are you guys in contact still? Prof Adzir nama tersohor di UPM. Very inspirational.

SM, yep, ada a few Datin Paduka's here in UPM.

YM LOL, Harus! ;D

Woww... Datuk Sri Paduka Dr. Suraya Abd. Rashid... sesedara tumpang bangga!!! :)

However, I'm a bit disturbed bila baca zaharuddin.net (right before i read ur entry...) penyangak2 gila pangkat ini senang sgt beli title!! so not unfair to those hardworking academician like u!

Eti said...
