Cultivation Ways and Program Duration
Cultivation Ways:Three stages of cultivating the engineering master program, i.e. course studying + professional practice + academic dissertation. The professional practice stage should no less than half a year. Students should find an enterprise or a company by themselves to finish this stage, providing materials for their academic dissertation.
Program Duration: 3 years
Credit Requirement
Minimum 30 credits in total, minimum 15 credits for compulsory courses.
