Post graduate study programs combine theoretical knowledge with
practical work in laboratory, pilot plant and industrial situations. It is not
uncommon for students to spend 3 – 6 months or longer in industry
dealing with real industrial problems.
Postgraduate students develop much more than just technical skills. They
often take advantage of additional learning opportunities and spend
longer than the minimum time; with masters students taking up to 3 years
and PhD students taking up to 4 to complete their degrees. They are
closely associated with research institutes and other high level researchers,
and international seminars and conferences are held regularly.
In 2016 there were about 500 master and 100 PhD graduates. The Choices
of these graduates after graduation were:
Further education both in China and Overseas (~20%)
Universities and Colleges, Research and Engineering institutes (~40%)
Related industry, i.e. Ming and Processing plant operations, equipment/
manufactures (~20%)
Others (~20%)
