Agree. If you compare to for example lawyers and doctors there is a highly structured, consistent (even consistent across different countries and cultures) route to achieving &quot;made man&quot; status (apologies for using a sexually biased term, but I couldn&#x27;t think of a better one). This consistent structure, beyond university, is what&#x27;s missing. This of course is hardly surprising in a field that is roughly 100X less mature.
