In May, applicants with the same academic ability applied for the master's degree examination by "studying while taking the exam". On the surface, the way of admission is relatively easy, but there are still three thresholds to obtain a degree certificate: the first is the course examination organized by the degree-granting unit. The second is the national unified foreign language proficiency and comprehensive level examination. The third is to complete the dissertation and pass the defense.
Therefore, the on-the-job graduate students of Beijing Jiaotong University are related to the application methods. It is less difficult to apply for the same academic level, but it is more difficult to take the joint exam in January.
