Our Ph.D. program emphasizes cultivating students’ ability to create and develop research topics, organize research, present and publish results and improve their language skills. Applicants should have the equivalent of an M.S. degree from a university or college accredited by the Ministry of Education (including foreign institutes). About 18 students are admitted each year, including 15 full-time and 3 part-time students. Additionally, top undergraduate and M.S. students are encouraged to apply for direct enrollment into the Ph.D. program. The admission is based on a review of the applicant’s past achievements and an oral interview. Students must sign up with a research advisor before the end of the first academic year. Students that already have a M.S. degree are required to complete a minimum of 18 credits of coursework, of which 9 credits must be offered by our Department. Students who only have a B.S. degree are required to complete a minimum of 30 credits of coursework, of which 12 credits must be offered by our Department. All students are required to take 4 or more credits of thesis research and 4 credits of seminars.
Students also must take Ph.D. qualifying examination curriculum divided into 4 systems: (A) Transport Phenomena & Unit Operation System, (B) Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics System, (C) Chemical Reaction Engineering System, (D) Principles of Chemical Engineering System (Only for students who do not major in Chemical Engineering). Students who major in Chemical Engineering must pass at least 2 systems among (A)(B)(C), and students who do not major in Chemical Engineering must pass system (D). All students must orally defend their proposal within 3 years of admission.
After completion of the Ph.D. dissertation, the Ph.D. candidate must defend the dissertation in public. The examination committee consists of a minimum of 5 members, among them at least 1/3 must be of external affiliations.
