Study Period:

The normative study period to complete our Part-time MSc programme is two years. For Full-time students, they can finish their studies in one year.

Students may take more courses and complete all requirements ahead of
the end date of normative study period. They can apply early
graduation. With careful planning, students can complete our MSc
programme within one year*.

On the other hand, some students may need more time to complete their
studies for various reasons. They can apply by writing to our office
to extend their study period. However, all students are
required to complete their studies within 4 years, i.e. the maximum study
period. Otherwise, they will be required to discontinue their studies.

* For students admitted in 2009 and afterwards

When students fulfill all the graduation requirements, they can apply for early
graduation. With careful planning, students can finish their studies in one
year.
