  • In the U.S., income is strongly related to educational attainment.
  • Although the incomes of both men and women are associated with higher educational attainment (higher incomes for higher educational attainment), there remains an income gap between races and genders at each educational level.

  • Community colleges provide higher education services, granting certificates, associate's degrees, and offer continuing and adult education.
  • In the United States, community colleges, sometimes called junior or technical colleges, are primarily two-year public institutions providing higher education and lower-level tertiary education.
  • Many also offer continuing and adult education.
  • The student (and family) pays little or nothing for the semesters of education while earning an associate's degree.
  • In addition, many colleges offer and accept scholarships or educational grants.

• Teaching as a Professor or Lecturer

  • The term of "professor" is given to all educators at the university level, but there are multiple roles and ranking in higher education.
  • Teaching as a professor or lecturer at the university level can be just as rewarding as teaching at the secondary education level, and just as challenging too.
  • As of August 2007 teaching in tertiary educational institutions is one of the fastest growing occupations, topping the U.S.
  • Additionally, most professorship position require educators to hold a doctorate degrees, while professors at community colleges may only need a master's degree.
  • Aspiring educators looking to secure a permanent position in higher education, should consider starting at the adjunct professorship level.

• Wastewater and Sewage Treatment

  • Wastewater is treated in 3 phases: primary (solid removal), secondary (bacterial decomposition), and tertiary (extra filtration).
  • Sewage treatment is done in three stages: primary, secondary and tertiary treatment .
  • Tertiary treatment (sometimes called "effluent polishing") is used to further clean water when it is being discharged into a sensitive ecosystem.

• The Status of Women in Mexico

  • Consequently, infrastructure, social development, education, and economic growth have lagged behind in southern states.
  • Poverty can also include a lack of access to social services such as education, healthcare, security, and income.
  • Over-qualification occurs when an employee has education, experience, or skills beyond the requirements of the job.

• Preventing Psychological Disorders

  • Prevention falls into three levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary.
  • Primary prevention targets individuals who are at a high risk for developing a disorder; secondary prevention targets those who are in the early stages of a disorder; and tertiary prevention targets individuals who already have a disorder by seeking to reduce or eliminate its negative impact.
  • Tertiary prevention includes methods to reduce the negative impact of existing disorders or diseases by reducing complications and restoring lost function.

  • The signs and symptoms of syphilis vary depending in which of the four stages it presents (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary).
  • Patient with tertiary (gummatous) syphilis.
  • Bust in Musée de l'Homme, Paris.Tertiary syphilis may occur approximately three to 15 years after the initial infection, and may be divided into three different forms: gummatous syphilis (15%), late neurosyphilis (6.5%), and cardiovascular syphilis (10%).
  • Without treatment, a third of infected people develop tertiary disease.
  • People with tertiary syphilis are not infectious.

• Reactions of Alcohols

  • Nucleophilic substitution is a common example, with SN2 conditions working best for primary alcohol synthesis and SN1 conditions affording secondary and especially tertiary alcohols.
  • Secondary and tertiary alcohols can undergo SN1 nucleophilic substitution when exposed to hydrohalic acids.
  • Although tertiary alcohols cannot be oxidized, secondary alcohols can be converted to ketones using an oxidizing agent.
  • On the left, a tertiary alcohol undergoes an SN1 reaction.

• General Organization of the Somatosensory System

  • A somatosensory pathway will typically consist of three neurons: primary, secondary, and tertiary.
  • Tertiary neurons have cell bodies in the thalamus and project to the postcentral gyrus of the parietal lobe, forming a sensory homunculus in the case of touch.
  • Regarding posture, the tertiary neuron is located in the cerebellum.
