department of land surveying and geo-informatics

doctor of philosophy

introduction

established in 1984, the department of land surveying and geo-informatics (lsgi) is the only academic unit amongst the local tertiary institutions offering a range of opportunities for education, training and research in the fields of land surveying and geo-informatics (or geomatics). the department has close links with both international and local academic institutions and the professions. by maintaining links with the local professional community through our community service and consultancy activities, our courses and research are oriented towards the needs of hong kong.

the department has identified urban informatics and smart city as its strategic area, with three corresponding focused research directions: a) spatial big data modelling and analytics; b) smart positioning and smart mobility; and c) urban sensing and measurement. as a regional centre of excellence in geomatics research, lsgi is comparable with international reputed academic units in the discipline, as evidenced by both the quantity and quality of the research produced and research grants received.

入学要求：

general entrance requirements

to register for the degree of mphil, a student must hold:

· a bachelor’s degree with first or second class honours from a recognised university; or

· other academic qualifications which are deemed to be equivalent.

to register for the degree of phd, a student must normally hold a postgraduate degree containing a significant research component, such as a dissertation, conferred by a recognised university.

in exceptional circumstances, applicants other than those stipulated above may be admitted directly to the phd programme.  for example, applicants with a bachelor’s degree with first class honours, or the equivalent.  such applicants may be required to pass an examination.

polyu may accept other equivalent qualifications.  the decision is made on an individual basis.

english language requirements

the requirements for those who do not have a degree for which english was the language of instruction at a recognised university are:

· an overall score of at least 6.5 in the international english language testing system (ielts); or

· a test of english as a foreign language (toefl) score of 80 or above for the internet-based test or 550 or above for the paper-based test.

all english language test scores are considered valid for two years after the date of the test.

numerous opportunities for research studies leading to doctor of philosophy (phd) or master of philosophy (mphil) degrees are available.  under our outcome-based framework, research students pursue a series of compulsory and elective subjects in-depth, with a view to contributing to the existing body of knowledge, as well as a research project under the supervision of an experienced academic staff member with similar research interests.  you can register for either full-time or part-time study.  details of the current main research interests at polyu can be found in the research areas section.

phd and mphil students must satisfactorily investigate or evaluate a chosen area, demonstrate an understanding of the context and significance of the work, display sustained independent effort and original thought and present a clear, complete thesis of a quality worthy of publication.

phd students are also expected to produce evidence and argument supporting an original proposition that results in a significant contribution to the knowledge of a subject.

the phd or mphil degree is awarded to a student who, upon completing an approved programme of study and research, submits a thesis presenting the results of his/her research and satisfies the examiners in an oral examination (and other examinations if required) in matters relevant to the subject of the thesis.  students must also complete all of the required coursework before submitting their theses.  the subjects are chosen by the student, with advice from the supervisor, from a wide range on offer.

the coursework credit requirements for different categories of students are as follows:

individual programmes may impose higher credit requirements, if deemed necessary.

one credit is approximately equal to 40 hours of study, including classes, private study and an examination. please click here for information on “credit transfer and subject exemption”.

tuition fee

the fees for new students admitted to our research programmes are as follows:

 * the above fees are non-refundable and subject to revision.

综上：

每年学费：hk$84,200+hk$7,017+hk$2,000 (for phd)=hk$93,217
博士是3-5年，一般是至少4年

总学费大约：hk$93,217 x4=hk$93,217 372,868 约合人民币31万。

总的生活费，香港每年的生活费大概是rmb10万左右，所以4年的话是40万。

总费用：博士4年的总学费+生活费是70万左右。

关于费用补贴：

polyu offers research studentships to full-time phd and mphil students.  the studentship is a scholarship intended as a means of financial support to allow full-time research students to fully focus on their studies.  it is awarded on the basis of academic merit.  the period of the studentship is decided by the department according to the student’s ability, academic background and experience.  the current studentship carries a stipend of $18,100* per month.  studentship recipients are required to spend up to six hours of training each week within their department.  the training involves assisting teaching and scholarly activities and is relevant to a student’s formal programme of study.

* this is applicable for 2020-21 only.  the stipend rate is subject to revision each year. 

理大为全日制博士及哲学硕士学生提供研究津贴补助。这是一种旨在为全日制研究型的学生提供经济支持的奖学金，使他们能够完全专注于自己的研究。奖学金是基于学业成绩授予的。奖学金的期限由院系根据学生的能力、学术背景和经验决定。目前的学生奖学金提供每月18,100美元的津贴。学生奖学金获得者被要求每周在他们的系内花费六个小时的培训。该培训包括协助教学和学术活动，并与学生的正式学习计划有关。

总补贴为：hk$18100*x12x4=hk$86,8800，合计rmb725128.3889。基本可以完全覆盖。

另外还有香港政府的全奖hkpfs，hkpfs需要单独申请的，是政府的；刚提到的research studentships也是需要申请的，网申时候选上。
