Faut-il supprimer l’HDR ?

Sur le blog Gaïa Universitas. D’après l’arrêté de 1988, toujours en vigueur, l’HDR (habilitation à diriger des recherches) « sanctionne la reconnaissance du haut niveau scientifique du candidat, du caractère original de sa démarche dans un domaine de la science, de son aptitude à maîtriser une stratégie de recherche dans un domaine scientifique ou technologique suffisamment large et de sa capacité à encadrer de jeunes chercheurs » (source ici).
Et l’aspect administratif dans tout ça ? C’est actuellement le point qui mériterait vraiment d’être amélioré. Il semble que les universités font de ce passage d’HDR une sorte d’usine à gaz assez complexe. Un exemple de sa complexité est donné par ce diagramme, extrait d’un document les d’Aix*Marseille Université qui décrit la procédure à suivre pour passer une HDR. Je crois vraiment que les universités gagneraient à épurer un peu ce chaos administratif, à commencer par la suppression de l’obligation d’inscription à l’établissement (comme un étudiant) que je trouve un peu ridicule.
En conclusion, faut-il supprimer l’HDR ? Pour ma part, je dis non. Mais le débat est ouvert. Voir l'article...
