As for ranks, those who hold administrative posts are awarded ranks according to their job levels, professional and technical officers are awarded ranks according to their technical levels (the difference lies in the use of professional and technical badges), and others are civilian cadres who have no ranks and wear civilian epaulettes.

It should be pointed out that in universities directly under the headquarters, such as National Defense University, instructors wear military uniforms before transferring to other schools, such as Zhang, who has been wearing naval uniforms and was awarded the rank of navy.
