Overview
Mathematics programme at The Chinese University of Hong Kong cultivates competent researchers in mathematics for academia and industrial research and development.
Since 2004, qualified undergraduate degree holders and MPhil students may opt for our Accelerated MPhil-PhD degree programme to study for a PhD directly. It is more demanding on the student and requires a recommendation from the prospective supervisor apart from typical application procedures. The curriculum is the same as for our PhD degree programme.
