on the organisation of the training of new scientists
The needs for further development of science and research require that, between 1961 and 1965, the states of qualified researchers on a national average are more than doubled. In order to ensure that this task can be carried out, it is necessary to improve the existing organisation of the education of researchers in the aspirant sector and beyond the aspirant sector and to make the most of all available opportunities for education. To this end, the President of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences and the Minister of Education and Culture, pursuant to § 5 (2) (c) of Act No. 52 / 1952 Coll., on the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, as amended by Act No. 53 / 1957 Coll. and under § 22 (2) of the Act No. 58 / 1950 Coll., on universities, as amended by Act No. 46 / 1956 Coll., in agreement with the Minister of Finance, the Central Council of Trade Unions, the Chairman of the State Social Security Office, the State Commission for Scientific Positions and Heads of the other participating Central Authorities and Authorities and the Bureau of the Czechoslovak Academy of Agricultural Sciences:
Purpose and forms of training of new scientists
The purpose of raising new scientists organised under this decree is to prepare for scientific research centres and universities a sufficient number of qualified staff with the rank of candidate of science, convinced supporters of Marxist-Lenin's world view, actively involved in the efforts of our working people to develop our society in a universal manner and to move towards communism.
The preconditions for the education of new scientists are already established in schools where pupils and students are sought for theoretical activity and where their interest in scientific work is also encouraged. Scientific research centres co-operate with universities in the care of talented higher-education students, involve them in scientific research work and place university graduates at their posts recommended by the Faculty of Research.
(1) The education of new scientists is organised in the following basic forms:
(a) scientific aspirant sound, external or one-year-old;
(b) the scientific preparation of selected staff of scientific research institutes at training centres and selected aspirants at universities directly during work on planned research tasks.
(2) Education in both of these forms ends with dissertation. *)
(3) Education is organised in fields in which scientific degrees can be obtained. * *)
(1) External aspirants, selected staff of scientific research centres and selected university assistants (§ 3 (1) (b)) may be admitted to a half-year to two-year study visits to scientific research centres for the purpose of special training in scientific work or production and operation for practice (§ 19).

Training centres and trainers
(1) The upbringing of new researchers takes place at the training centres of academics, universities and departments under the guidance of trainers. The Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences is designated by the training institutes and trainers in the academies of science and departments on the basis of a proposal from the participating central authorities and bodies. The Ministry of Education and Culture determines the training centres and trainers at universities.
(2) The management of the upbringing of new scientists is part of the training duties of the instructor at the training centre. * * *) One trainer should not normally be assigned to training more than five workers.
