5. Arrangements of Doctoral Dissertation

(1) In general, a proposal for the dissertation should be completed before the end of the third semester after enrollment and the time for a Doctoral student to conduct research and finish the dissertation is no less than 3 years. (2) A comprehensive assessment will be conducted on the Doctoral students one and a half years after proposal report. Upon approval by the institute and the graduate school, students who fail the

4

assessment no longer have the qualification to continue their study for a doctoral degree. (3) The dissertation must be independently completed by the doctoral students under the guidance of instructors and innovative results are required; (4) Doctoral students should actively participate in domestic and international academic exchanges during the period of study to enhance the academic competency and improve the quality of research work. Meanwhile, they are required to write and publish research papers. Only after they meet the basic requirements for research achievements in the study period can they apply for dissertation defense.

6. General Requirements of Publications to Apply for Graduation and the Degree

The student who applies for graduation and the Ph.D. degree must have at least three papers that are related to his/her doctoral dissertation published or accepted for publication (including notification of acceptance, but at least two papers have already been published) in leading domestic and foreign academic journals (core journals or above) in the research area as the first author (including the situation in which the advisors are the first authors and students are the second). At least one of the published papers must be written in English and publications must satisfy the following conditions: (1) At least one paper is indexed by SCIE; or (2) At least two papers are published in EI-indexed journals; or (3) At least one paper is published in a Class A International Conference (Computer Science and Technology, Software Engineering) (the list of such conferences is provided in the appendix). The first affiliation of all the research results published by applicants during the full period of study must be Beijing University of Technology in order to be used to meet degree requirements.
