The Chinese word 学位 (xuéwèi) for "academic degree" is composed of two characters: 学 (xué), meaning "study" or "learning", and 位 (wèi), meaning "position" or "rank". Together, these characters convey the idea of a level of attainment in education, or a rank achieved through academic study.The character 学 (xué) has a long history in Chinese, dating back to the Shang dynasty (c. 1600-1046 BC). It originally represented a person holding a bamboo slip, which was used for writing in ancient China. Over time, the character came to be used more broadly to represent the concept of learning or studying.The character 位 (wèi) also has a long history in Chinese, dating back to the Zhou dynasty (c. 1046-256 BC). It originally represented a person standing on a platform, which was used to indicate a person's status or rank. Over time, the character came to be used more broadly to represent the concept of position or rank.When these two characters are combined to form 学位 (xuéwèi), they convey the idea of a level of attainment in education, or a rank achieved through academic study. In modern Chinese, 学位 is used to refer to academic degrees such as bachelor's degrees, master's degrees, and doctoral degrees.
