About this programme
The programme is research-oriented. All doctoral students have to attend seminars within the normative study years and take four to six courses. If the Division deems it necessary, some students may be required to take a course on a language other than English and Chinese and meet any further requirements laid down by the Division. Students are required to fulfil the qualifying examination requirement before they can submit their dissertations. The student will write his/her dissertation under the guidance of his/her supervisor.
