Academician




In many countries it is a Honorary Title .

"Academician" may also be a functional title and denote a full member of the National Academy Of Sciences in those countries where the Academy has a strong influence on national scientific life, particularly countries that were part of, or influenced by, the Soviet Union . In such countries, "Academician" is used as a Honorific (like "Doctor", "Professor" etc) when addressing or speaking about someone. Countries where the term Academician is used in this way include Ukraine , Russia , Georgia , Armenia , Azerbaijan , Latvia , Lithuania , Estonia , Moldova , Serbia And Montenegro , Romania , Croatia and possibly others.

The British honour Fellow Of The Royal Society (FRS) can be considered as roughly equivalent.

There also exists a lower-rank title, variously translated Corresponding Member or '''Accociate Member''' (of the corresponding academy), (''chlen-korrespondent'').
