If you plan to pursue a doctoral degree at DHU, we suggest you submit a Supervision Intention Letter (SIL) signed by a DHU professor as a part of your application.

STEPS:

1. Check the 2025 doctoral degree programs list & key information. Make sure that you're qualified to apply and, DHU offers the program you're interested in. 

2. Check the 2025 Doctoral Research Directions & Faculties Information. Use the online translation or translation software in case you need to read in English.

3. Send emails to DHU Professors:

  1) With the information on the official website, you will find professors’ information and contact email.

  2) You are suggested to email the DHU professor the relevant documents that can prove your experience and competence, such as a professional self-introduction, academic background, diploma and transcripts, CV, thesis, published articles, research proposal, etc.

  3) Do write the email in the medium of instruction you apply for.

4. If the professor has the intention to be your future supervisor, you should download the template of 2025 Supervision Intention Letter (SIL-D), fill it out and sign it. Then give it to the professor for his/her signature. At the same time, this professor needs to sign on the cover of your Research Proposal (only for doctoral applicants). The date of the professor's signature should be after November 1st, 2024. 

Note: Supervision Intention Letter (SIL) is only used as one of the application materials one should submit for online application to DHU, NOT DHU's official acceptance letter or admission document. The university may adjust the supervisor according to the actual situation during the admissions review or after the freshman enrollment.
