Since mankind entered the industrial revolution, the level of science and technology has become an important factor in measuring comprehensive national strength. The driving force for the development of science and technology comes from the efforts and efforts of countless scientific researchers behind it. Therefore, how to cultivate and attract outstanding scientists has always been the focus of attention of all countries.
Now, if you were a scientist, what treatment would you receive in different countries?
First of all, it is the United States.
When it comes to science and technology, it must be inseparable from the United States. As the country with the highest scientific research level in the world today, a large number of scientific researchers go to the United States to study and exchange every year. Especially the National Academy of Sciences in the United States, this is a place that many scientists in the world dream of.
United States National Academy of Sciences was established in 1863 and is one of the highest academic institutions in the United States and even the world. Since its establishment, about 200 academicians of the institution have won the Nobel Prize, making great contributions to the development of science and technology in the United States and even the world. However, it should be noted that the US National Academy of Sciences is not a government department, but a private non-profit organization. This means that your material reward here is almost zero, and you gain more is the recognition of the academic community, praise from the society, and your own spiritual satisfaction.
Next is Germany.
As a veteran technology power, Germany has experienced two losses of scientists, which has brought a heavy blow to Germany's scientific research development. Therefore, the German federal government attaches great importance to scientific and technological talents. After entering the 21st century, Germany officially launched the "Excellence Program" to attract scientists from all countries through generous treatment.
According to data from the German Federal Statistics Office, the monthly salary of top German scientists after tax is about 4,500 euros, and they can also enjoy various subsidies given by the federal government. Even after retirement, you can still receive a pension of 72% of the maximum salary. In addition, Germany will also award young scientists the Sovya-Kowalevskaya Award, and each winner can get a scientific research prize of up to 1.65 million euros.
In addition to the United States and Germany, there is another country that is particularly worthy of our attention, that is Japan.
Around the world, Japanese scientists have a high social status in the country and are almost unparalleled. If you compare the yen with the currencies of other countries, you will find that the currencies of most countries in the world are almost all portraits of politicians printed on them. However, the Japanese currency is printed on it, which is portrait of scholars from various fields.
The entire Japanese society is also spreading a good atmosphere of advocating science and respecting science. Japanese scientists can not only receive certain salary income and subsidies every month. In addition, you can also obtain a steady stream of scientific research expenses from major enterprises or academic institutions.
To sum up, although the treatment of American scientists is average, they can obtain extremely high honors and status. Scientists in Germany and Japan can not only have a high social status in their own country, but also receive generous treatment, which can be said to be both fame and fortune.
So, which country do you think is the best treatment for scientists?
