  • Your rank in your class/department if available, e.g., your rank is 6/138 (or 6th out of 138 students)

• International publications in English (if you have more than 3 papers, send me three of your best papers)
• Transcripts in English (if you have a master degree, please send me both undergraduate and graduate transcripts; if you are Chinese, please also send me your transcripts in Chinese)
• Copy of diploma for bachelor degree (and master degree if you received master degree)

I judge the performance of an applicant mainly based on international publications or research project reports.  Due to a large number of emails I receive every day, I reply to the applicants only if I need more information, or decide to interview the applicants.   If you are offered the studentship and choose to join my group, I look forward to giving you an enjoyable and rewarding experience working with me.

For those who have sent me emails, I am sorry if you haven't heard from me. Due to the large number of emails I receive every day, I may not be able to reply to each email.   But I encourage you to apply to City University of Hong Kong.  It is a nice place to pursue your Ph.D. or M.S.  

If you do not get admitted to my group or City University of Hong Kong, I hope you are not discouraged.  Keep up the good work. I believe you will eventually join a school that you like, lead a happy life, and you will make a difference. No matter where you are and what hardship you are facing, be optimistic and keep working toward your goal.  You will be rewarded for your effort.  Hard work always pays off.

Please do not call my phone if you do not hear from me through email.  Due to my limited time, I am unable to handle applications through phone.  Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.  Good luck for your application!
