Admission Requirements
The Department of Civil Engineering at 成人VR视频 is committed to academic excellence. Only outstanding candidates are considered for entry into the graduate program. A comprehensive list of the entrance requirements can be found on the web pages of the Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Office. However, there are two essential criteria defined by the University that a student must meet in order to be eligible to apply.
- Academic qualifications: Students must have achieved a cumulative gradepoint average equivalent to 3.0 out of a possible 4.0, in a recognized program.听 This applies to the Bachelor's degree as well as to the Master's degree for PhD applicants.听 Alternatively, an equivalent gradepoint average of 3.2 over the last two years of the program will be accepted.
- Proficiency in English:The language of instruction at 成人VR视频 is English. All students whose mother tongue is not English or who have not completed a degree in English, must show proficiency in English. Students applying to our graduate program must have achieved a minimum TOEFL score on the iBT (internet based test) of 94 overall and no less than 20 in each of the four component areas, or have achieve a minimum band score of 7 or greater (Academic module) and no less than 6.0 for each of listening, reading, writing and speaking, for the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) in order to apply. Visit the Graduate 成人VR视频 English Language Proficiency for more information on the English Language requirements.
You must meet both of these requirements to be eligible to apply.听 Satisfaction of these minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.
