How to apply for a postgraduate degree at the University of Hong Kong?
The website of HKU is: http://hku.edu.hk. Postgraduates applying for the University of Hong Kong generally need the following materials: 1. Undergraduate transcripts: one in Chinese and one in English, which must be notarized by the school. 2. Proof of English proficiency: Generally speaking, TOEFL scores are required. Unlike the United States, universities in Hong Kong do not require ETS to issue grades, but only a copy of the original. If some universities don't even have to take the TOEFL score, the mainland's CET-4 and CET-6 certificates are acceptable. But good TOEFL scores are obviously more competitive. 3.GRE scores: With the fierce competition, universities in Hong Kong now require GRE scores. Just like TOEFL, you only need one copy. These two items can save us 25 dollars. 4. Application Form: Generally speaking, as long as you send an email to the admissions office or the department, it is convenient to send the relevant forms. But unlike the United States, universities in Hong Kong will ask you to explain your research intention. Of course, it only needs a very broad scope and does not need to be very specific. Information is generally free. If you feel troublesome, you can even download it from the Internet. 5. Research plan: This is different from American universities and the most important point. This is completely different from the personal statement required by American universities. The research proposal is purely academic, and there is no need to add personal experiences and feelings. It requires the applicant to have a clear research plan and grasp it well. This plan must be very specific, not too broad. A research plan generally includes the following points: (1) topic, that is, the problem you want to solve; (2) The significance of studying this issue; (3) the previous research situation, that is, the remaining problems; (4) your research methodology; (5) Bibliography: This is very important, but it is often ignored.
