Apply for PHD in Hong Kong

There are many factors for successful application:

1. Personal ability (including bachelor’s and master’s grades, English proficiency, scientific research ability, comprehensive quality, etc.). In fact, I feel that your master's degree is not important. The teacher mainly depends on your undergraduate grades. A rank of 10% should be fine.

2. Each teacher has a quota every year, that is, the number of PhD places admitted is limited. Some very good teachers may have many students who want to apply for their PhD in the same year, but the teacher has the final say on who to choose, so it depends on luck + magnetism ability.

3. There is a degree called MPhil (The Master of Philosophy). If you cannot apply for a PhD, you can try MPhil. It only requires a bachelor's degree and you can graduate in 2 years. There are also scholarships and less pressure. , when the 2 years are up, you can apply to transfer to PhD (equivalent to a combined master's and doctoral degree, the advantage is that it does not waste time, after transferring to PhD, you only need to add 2 years, and the total PhD is 3-4 years). Of course, it is still best to apply for a PhD.

4. I feel that age is a very secondary thing.

Hong Kong people believe in living until you are old and learning until you are old. The competition is too fierce~:)

I hope it can help you!
