Article 3 All colleges, departments, and degree programs that offer Master s or PhD programs shall formulate degree requirements for graduate students and PhD candidates according to the University Act and its implementation regulations, the Degree Conferral Law and its implementation regulations, as well as the university regulations and these guidelines. The degree requirements shall cover the following aspects:
2 1. Admission requirements: Admission requirements for students enrolling directly in the PhD program and regulations for the transfer to other departments should be included 2. Program duration: Minimum and maximum program duration for full-time and part-time students 3.

Other regulations specified by individual departments 8. Procedure: These requirements and all amendments are subject to approval by the Department Committee before they are made public and implemented and shall be reported to the Academic Affairs Committee for reference purposes. Article 4 PhD candidates should be required to undergo a strict assessment by colleges, departments, and degree programs. Students have to pass the qualification exam and meet all requirements related to the degree examinations for PhD candidates before they can be accepted as PhD candidates by colleges, departments, or degree programs. The qualification exam is administered as follows: 1. The qualification exam is administered once per semester. Exam dates are scheduled and applications are processed by the colleges, departments, and degree programs. The maximum number of exam attempts per student for each subject is also determined by the colleges, departments, and degree programs. Students who do not complete the program within the required time frame or the maximum number of attempts will be expelled after the Office of Academic Affairs has been notified. 2. The qualification exam is administered primarily in written form. The colleges, departments, and degree programs shall form a committee which will handle all matters pertaining to the exam. The qualification exam shall be incorporated into the degree requirements by the colleges, departments, and degree programs.
3 3. Graduate students who enroll directly in PhD programs and fail the qualification exam for PhD candidates are allowed to reenroll in their original master s program upon approval by the colleges, departments, and degree programs and the President. 4. After graduate students pass the qualification exam, the Office of Academic Affairs will enter the scores in the score chart after being notified by the colleges, departments, or degree programs. Article 5 Students are eligible for the MA or PhD graduation exam if they meet the following requirements: 1. Minimum program length as specified in the regulations 2. Completion of required courses and credits as stipulated by the colleges, departments, or degree programs 3. Completion of the first draft of the thesis 4. Students who pass the qualification exam of the PhD program are granted PhD candidate status. The same applies to graduate students who pass the assessment test. Each college, department, and degree program determines its own assessment criteria and is authorized to adjust these criteria as seen fit. Article 6 Each department and degree program decides which language academic theses and abstracts should be written based on its own specific development strategy. Theses for which a degree has already been awarded in Taiwan or abroad may not be resubmitted. Article 7 The following regulations apply to applications for the degree examination: 1. Application deadline: Once a semester as indicated in the university calendar. Exam applications for continuing education summer programs for instructors have to be submitted after completion of the enrollment procedure and by October 15 at the latest. In special cases, applications will also be accepted within specified deadlines during the first or second semester of the official academic curriculum.
4 However, applicants have to pay the basic tuition and miscellaneous fees for the respective semester. Students have to submit their application forms in addition to the following documents: a. Academic transcript b. A copy of the thesis draft and the abstract Graduate students who are enrolled in art or applied technology colleges, departments, or degree programs can submit written reports of their creative work, performances or graduation projects in place of a thesis. Each college, department, and degree program determines its own assessment criteria. The executive council determines whether a specific graduate program should be categorized as an art or applied technology colleges, departments, or degree programs, and each colleges, departments, or degree programs should formulate relative regulations and credits requirements in guidelines. 2. Upon approval by the supervising professor and the head of the home college, department, or degree program, the application has to be endorsed by the university. Article 8 The passing grade for the degree examination is 70 (B-) and the maximum score is 100 (A+). Scores are only assessed once and are determined by the average of all scores awarded by the examination committee members. If students who are enrolled in MA programs receive non-passing grades from more than 50% of the committee members, the examination is considered failed. The same applies to PhD candidates who receive non-passing grades from more than 30% of all committee members (scores are only assessed once). If plagiarism or fraud in the student s academic work is confirmed by the degree examination commission, the examination will be considered failed. Article 9 Colleges, departments, and degree programs should wait until the student submits his thesis which has been signed and approved by the examination committee before the degree examination scores are forwarded to the Office of Academic Affairs. Scores should be submitted no later than January 31 for the first semester and July 31 for the second semester, respectively. Scores for continuing education summer programs for instructors should be submitted by November 15.
5 The deadline for thesis submission (including a paper copy and the digital file) is February 15 for the first semester, August 15 for the second semester, and November 30 for the continuing summer refresher course, respectively (individual colleges, departments, and degree programs are authorized to set their own deadlines). Students who miss these deadlines and have not reached the maximum program length should still enroll for the next semester (summer term) and submit their thesis within the deadline for that semester (summer term). The student will then graduate in that semester (summer term). Students who fail to submit their thesis within the maximum program duration will fail their degree examinations and will be expelled from the university. Students who have successfully passed their degree examinations have to submit a paper copy of their thesis in addition to the digital file and the degree examination scores. Diplomas will be awarded when the student passes his degree examination and completes the checkout procedures. Article 10 If a student applies for the degree examination and is unable to attend the exam for certain reasons, he/she has to petition the university to cancel his/her application for the respective semester (summer term). If applications are not cancelled within the specified deadline, the examination will be considered failed.
