QUOTE(Sweet_Candy @ Mar 16 2011, 04:57 AM) Sth to share, I am a 2nd year phd student in UK and one of my phd colleague over here is an assist. professor (i.e Prof. Madya) in the Malaysia. Am appalled that you don't need to have a phd to become a professor/ assistant prof in Malaysia. Assistant Professor is not Prof Madya, Asst Prof is equivalent to Senior Lecturer. In Malaysia Associate Professor is called Prof Madya The rank is like this Professor Associate Prof Assistant Prof / Senior Lecturer Lecturer Senior Tutor Tutor Currently in Malaysia most of the IPTA's need Phd to become a lecturer (except Uitm).

Do you prefer lecturers that have a lot of industry experience (but without Phd), compared to lecturers have Phd but zero industry experience.

The reason is im still not satisfied in my life for just having a degree and master, and also 9 years experience working in industry. I need more knowledge and exposure to make my life more even better in term of knowledge and to be somebody in a country in future.

QUOTE(Critical_Fallacy @ Apr 9 2013, 06:59 PM) Hi Ron, (1) What’s your dream job? (2) What bothers you most about not having enough knowledge and exposure? (3) Are you ever satisfied? Why or why not? (4) How do you go about illuminating “blind spots” in your life? 1) My current job. But in future maybe in R&D 2) In industry usually u cannot focus on R&D 3) As above 4) Can't understand what u mean

http://iedaimmi.blogspot.com/2013/03/jins-...egar-walau.htmlhttp://www.mstar.com.my/cerita.asp?file=/2...nusia_peristiwaThis guy was taking his Phd while age around 73 years old. After finished his Phd, now he suffered from alzheimer's disease. Like a few people in this forum said Phd = permanently head damage. So i think finish your Phd while you still young.
