About
Conducting doctoral studies in specialised domains such as military science, intelligence, and policing is typically a rare occurrence, yet Romanian academies have seen a significant volume of such research over a relatively brief period. This collection documents the composition of doctoral boards across the National Defence Academy, the National Intelligence Academy, and the Police Academy. By detailing candidates, their respective boards, and the specific roles of academic and military officials, the data sheds light on the oversight and coordination within these traditionally opaque institutions. While column headers and roles have been translated into English, specific military ranks, academic titles, and thesis names are preserved in the original Romanian to maintain historical accuracy and context.
Columns
- Year: The specific calendar year the doctoral board was convened, covering various periods between 2004 and 2017.
- Candidate: The name of the individual pursuing the doctoral degree and presenting their thesis.
- Title: The title of the doctoral thesis; note that these remain in Romanian and may be empty in certain records.
- Board_Member: The full designation of the board participant, including Romanian military grades and academic titles.
- Role: The specific function held by the board member, such as Chairman or Reviewer, with five unique values present.
- Name: The extracted name of the board member, facilitating easier searching and individual identification.
Distribution
The information is delivered in a CSV format titled
doctoral_boards_defence_national_academy.csv with a file size of 443.77 kB. It consists of 3,730 valid records structured across 7 columns. The data exhibits high integrity with 100% validity in key fields like Year, Candidate, and Board_Member, and no mismatched entries. The resource maintains a usability score of 10.00 and is intended for annual updates.Usage
This registry is ideal for researchers looking to uncover patterns of influence within Romanian security education. It can be used to identify the most frequent doctoral advisors, map networks of coordinators across different academies, and determine if certain individuals hold multiple roles simultaneously. Investigative journalists may find it useful for tracing the academic credentials of military and police officials or spotting potential conflicts of interest in the granting of advanced degrees. The data also supports statistical analysis regarding the number of theses overseen by individual advisors per year.
Coverage
The geographic scope is limited to Romania, focusing on three major national institutions: the National Defence Academy (2007–2017), the National Intelligence Academy (2010–2017), and the Police Academy (2004–2009). The temporal range captures a period of significant doctoral activity within the security sector. While the metadata is provided in English, users should be prepared to engage with Romanian terminology regarding military ranks and academic honours.
