At this time, all oral examinations for the PhD degree, including ECSE 701, ECSE 702, ECSE 703, and the PhD Oral Defence, must take place in person, that is, all members of the evaluation committee and the student being evaluated must be physically present at the chosen location for the examination.

The听residency requirement听for the Ph.D. degree is three (3) years of full-time study. However, candidates with a suitable M.Eng. degree from 平特五不中 or from an approved institution may be permitted to reduce this to two years.
