The rules of conferring academic degrees and titles, and employment of academic staff at universities during the interwar period were defined in the acts on higher education schools. Two such laws were passed in 1920 and in 1933. Particular solutions were introduced by decrees of the Minister for Religious Denominations and Public Education and through university statutes. During that period there were two academic degrees: lower and higher. Lowers degrees comprised: master’s degree (magister), bachelor’s degree (licencjat) physician, graduate engineer and graduate architect. They were conferred upon completion of university studies. The higher academic degree was that of doctor. As regards academic titles, there was only one: docent (assistant professor), conferred upon completion of the habilitation procedure. The laws also specified the rules of awarding the positions of associate professor (profesor nadzwyczajny, professor extraordinarius) and full professor (profesor zwyczajny, professor ordinarius) connected with the appointment as heads of extraordinary chairs or of more prestigious ordinary chairs, and defined the rules of employment of auxiliary academic staff. The adopted procedure for the conferral of academic degrees and titles did arouse serious controversy. The case was different with the system of employment of academic staff based on a limited number of professorial chairs. It was entirely inapplicable to the academic achievements in the fastest developing disciplines.
