The general academic system for graduate students and doctoral students is five years. After completing the required courses, I usually take the doctoral qualification examination in the fourth semester. The main assessment is the professional foundation, scientific research ability and foreign language level. Students who pass the qualification examination can transfer to doctoral students from the third academic year, and students who fail the examination will continue to be trained according to the master's training plan.

To put it simply, in the five years of continuous study, the first two years are master's studies and the last three years are doctoral studies. However, this is not absolute. Some special colleges and special majors take a long time to study, such as medical majors. Many students can't finish their studies on time due to objective reasons such as papers or scientific research projects, so they can choose to apply for extending their study years, that is, extending their study years, but the longest study period in school can only be put forward once, that is, eight years.

Master's degree and continuous reading

Master's and doctoral students who have completed the required courses, achieved excellent results, and have strong innovative spirit and scientific research ability are selected by the admissions unit. Students who plan to continue their master's and doctoral degrees need to apply in accordance with the provisions of the admissions unit and pass the doctoral entrance examination or assessment organized by the admissions unit before entering the doctoral stage.
