1. Gneral Enrance Requirements
Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree or an equivalent undergraduate qualification from a recognized university.
2. English Proficiency Requirements
Applicants who have graduated from a non-English medium university must meet the following minimum English proficiency standards:
- CET-6: Score of 425 or Pass;
- OR TOEFL: 550 (PBT) / 79 (iBT). For TOEFL scores, applicants should arrange for ETS to send the score report directly to City University of Hong Kong (Dongguan). The TOEFL institution code for City University of Hong Kong (Dongguan) is D693.
- OR IELTS (Academic): Overall Band Score of 6.0;
- OR other equivalent English test results.
* Only scores from single test attempts are accepted, and home-based tests are not eligible. Applicants whose first language is English or who have obtained a bachelor's degree (or equivalent qualification) from an institution where the medium of instruction is English are exempt from providing an English test score.
Note:
- TOEFL and IELTS scores are valid for two years.
- Applicants must submit their English test scores, which are only considered valid if obtained within two years prior to the application start date.
- Programs may set higher English proficiency requirements or accept alternative qualifications, depending on their specific academic requirements.

Materials Engineering and Nanotechnology: Students will gain an in-depth understanding of the characteristics of materials under stress, become familiar with the various mechanisms by which material properties degrade due to environmental influences, and master the relevant scientific techniques for analyzing and testing materials. For specific application scenarios, they will be able to comprehensively consider multiple factors such as economic effects, functional requirements, environmental factors, manufacturability, and reliability, and select the most suitable materials with a thorough understanding. They will be capable of analyzing the decisive factors in the failure of engineering components and providing rational countermeasures for potential future risks. Additionally, they will master the skills required for designing and preparing new structures, innovative functions, and high-performance nanostructured materials.
