Thought I'd mention that in spite of the "in the world" near the start of the article, the term "docent" is almost unknown in Britain. Google test: Docent guide gets 757,000 hits [1], whereas the same search term confined to site:uk results gets only 315. [2]. As further evidence, see this House of Commons report in which an American's use of "docent" has to be explained by the addition of "[guide]". 86.132.141.115 01:30, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requirement of two dissertation ("Qualifications are similar to those of professors: two dissertations") seems to refer to the German Habitation requirement, discussed later on the page. Most other countries do not have this system. Unless the original refers to a master's thesis as being the first "dissertation"?
