    Abstract:
    19 ventose an XI (1803) law reminds the emergence of post Revolution's University. Then, it is interesting to give a sharp look upon the various ways of recruiting as to medical professors for that time. At start, there were only professors without any title, but, since 1823, graduates who had passed the agregation examination came in sight. They had a temporary status - which lasted 150 years almost without any important alteration! Bit by bit, the qualification of "Agrege" appeared essential to be firmly established as a first rank medical teacher. Afterwards, technical medicine power superseded in some way political one, while, at the top of the state, nominations where balanced between every "Faculte de Medecine". Unfortunately, after 1988, purposing to ensure the best training of new professors, ruling authorities let to local "Universites" a chance to recover what they lost before. At last, the decision to bring into the civil service all of medical professors put them into the same category than the others, ruling out hierarchial system under a choise suggested by competent men.
