The specific examination subjects are generally decided by the admissions institution. Some schools may not test political theory, but specialized courses are compulsory courses in most schools. Generally speaking, the doctoral examination needs to be divided into initial examination and second examination. The first test is mainly written, and the second test will also have a comprehensive interview.
Expand knowledge:
There are several ways for graduate students in our school to study for doctor's degree: direct undergraduate course, continuing graduate student, general recruitment, and all kinds of basic methods can be used.
Postgraduates from other universities apply for non-directional doctoral degrees in 985 universities: generally, there are three enrollment methods, namely, tutor group plan, application evaluation system and application evaluation system.
1, Mentor Group Plan:
Exempt from preliminary examination (online registration, submission of materials for review)+re-examination (interview/comprehensive assessment) Most doctoral tutors or teachers of the research group form a team to announce doctoral recruitment in some colleges and universities, and decide the admission results through material review and interview, without foreign language assessment; Not all majors recruit doctors through the tutor group plan, only a few majors adopt this method, and the number of recruits is small;
Counseling groups generally only go to double-class universities or research institutes/institutes, and most of them apply for and enroll in double-class universities and some research institutes/institutes such as 985, 2 1 1. For non-graduate students, this method is generally limited. Therefore, the first choice for non-graduate students is to apply for approval.
2. Application review system:
It is a boon for non-graduate students to fail the first examination (online registration and submission of examination materials) and the second examination (interview/comprehensive examination). Applying for the examination system is a way to take the doctoral examination instead of taking the unified examination, which is simpler than the unified examination method.
The examination application system is gradually replacing the national unified examination system of 985 colleges and universities nationwide. For example, Tianjin University cancelled the unified examination system, and all of them applied for the examination. Some 985 universities still retain some doctoral places under the unified examination system, such as Shandong University. 2 1 1 Universities or some scientific research institutes/research institutes have also begun to try out the application review system. However, some colleges and universities still retain the unified examination system, such as Huadian and Electric Power Research Institute.
3, apply for assessment system:
Exemption from preliminary examination (online registration, submission of materials for review)+second examination (written examination+interview/comprehensive assessment) has one more written examination link than the application review system.
4. National unified examination:
The initial test (English+specialized course 1+ specialized course 2)+ retest (interview) includes two links: written test and retest. The written test generally takes "specialized courses, mathematics and English".
The process of the national unified examination system is similar to that of postgraduate entrance examination. You must pass the preliminary written test and get the best high score, so as to increase the admission probability and have the opportunity to enter the second interview. Re-examination generally includes oral English, professional re-examination and data review.
Among them, oral English includes "self-introduction, hometown situation, graduation design, graduation thesis, plan/scheme of studying for doctoral degree, etc." It is important to contact the tutor when reviewing the materials.
Note: the unified examination system needs to contact the doctoral supervisor in advance, otherwise the high score cannot be guaranteed in the information review of the re-examination after the written examination is passed, and there is still the risk of being erased. For how to contact your doctoral supervisor, please refer to the article on the application review system (including the self-recommendation letter/application letter for doctoral examination).
5, joint training, targeted assistance, etc. ：
These are the joint training and directional support between specific universities, and the corresponding countries call for training talents. Students who want to apply for the exam can check the corresponding enrollment brochures published by the Graduate Admissions Network.
6. Doctor of Engineering:
The registration, material preparation, assessment process and interview/re-examination of the oriented and non-oriented, on-the-job and off-job application assessment systems are basically the same, but there is no need to participate in foreign language assessment. Therefore, for students applying for a doctorate in engineering, please refer to the "Application Review System" for the preparation process.
