## Admissions

Choose the exact English degree and current application cycle, prepare the relevant academic, language and personal documents, and submit through SDUT’s official international student platform. Follow university review and any additional assessment, then use the final admission instructions to plan payment, registration and arrival.


## Why students choose it

- Compare applied and engineering-focused study in Zibo.
- Review an English programme with a published normal duration and named academic school.
- Plan academic, financial and language preparation using the current international guide.

## Things to consider

- Confirm the selected English cohort, academic location and exact completion requirements.
- English Studies tuition needs a programme-specific quote.
- The Power Engineering and Engineering Thermophysics master is explicitly named in the introduction but lacks a table marker.

## Best fit for

- Applicants comparing English engineering, computing, resource exploration or trade study.
- Graduates prepared to submit academic recommendations and a research plan.
- Students who can verify their actual campus, residence and next application dates before travel.

## Campus and city

The university’s teaching environment includes laboratories, specialist classrooms, library resources and facilities used by international students. Its international education school also organises Chinese cultural activities and student services. Confirm the exact academic and residence location for the chosen degree. The dated west-campus gate photograph provides campus context and does not allocate any programme.

SDUT is based in Zibo, Shandong, a city associated with ancient Qi culture and ceramics. The international education school publishes its contact address on Xincun West Road in Zhangdian District. Plan daily travel around the confirmed teaching and residence assignment; an office address and campus photograph do not establish the location of every laboratory or class. No fixed commute time or city living budget is assumed.

The current international guide describes joint practice bases with local partners, professional-development visits and company presentations for students. It also outlines cultural learning linked to Qi culture and the Yellow River. Resource Exploration Engineering’s whole-major profile includes field-oriented mineral investigation, evaluation, geophysical methods, GIS and geological modelling. These institutional and curriculum features do not guarantee a particular internship, company placement, fieldwork location or employment result for an individual English cohort.


## Hostel, food and safety

The 2027 guide lists CNY 2,600 per year for four-person rooms and CNY 5,200 per year for twin rooms. It describes accommodation with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, washing machines, bathroom/shower facilities and shared kitchens. Confirm actual allocation, current facilities, payment terms and the billing basis before arrival; the room table gives annual amounts without independently resolving a per-person or per-room unit here.

Shared kitchens are among the residence facilities described in the current guide. Confirm the permitted equipment and food preparation for the assigned building, nearby dining choices and any specific dietary needs. Tuition and room references do not establish a compulsory meal plan, universal halal provision or a fixed food budget. Plan daily expenses separately.

The application checklist requires a physical examination record and non-criminal record evidence. The 2027 insurance reference is CNY 800 per person per year. Confirm current document formats, validity periods, arrival health checks and policy coverage before travelling; no unverified police-report expiry, bank-history rule or medical reimbursement entitlement is added.

The School of International Education provides the official admissions route and international student services. Applicants submit through the university’s online platform, follow document review and receive admission notifications through the system or email. Students Traffic can help compare public information and prepare questions; academic admission, funding and residence decisions remain with the university.


## Frequently asked questions

### Which English fields can I consider?

The current guide identifies English bachelor options in mechanical, energy/power, electrical, computing and civil engineering, resource exploration, international trade and English studies. English master fields include transportation engineering, professional civil engineering, materials science/engineering and the separately named power engineering and thermophysics route. Confirm the exact academic school and cohort.

### How long are the programmes and what awards are established?

The current catalogue gives normal undergraduate study of four years and master study of three years. The professional Civil Engineering master keeps its stated professional status. Qualification level does not by itself establish a BSc, BEng, MSc or MEng abbreviation or a professional registration entitlement. Use the exact university title when seeking formal award confirmation.

### What English evidence is accepted for bachelors?

The guide lists IELTS 5.5, TOEFL 70, an internationally recognised equivalent, proof that secondary-school teaching was in English, or the university’s own English ability test. Confirm the accepted document and score cutoff directly. Chinese-medium entry rules are separate and are not automatically imposed on an English programme.

### What English evidence do masters need?

The graduate English routes are IELTS 6.0, TOEFL 75, an internationally recognised equivalent or the university’s English ability test. The published graduate list does not add the bachelor secondary-school English-medium alternative as a universal graduate waiver. Confirm any programme-specific assessment and exact score requirements.

### Which undergraduate examinations apply?

For English science/engineering programmes, the guide requires CSCA Mathematics and Physics. English humanities/business routes require Mathematics. Confirm the exact paper language, score and result-submission deadline directly. Master applications have their own graduate checklist and do not inherit undergraduate examination requirements.

### What age and nationality conditions apply?

Applicants hold a valid ordinary foreign passport and must be non-Chinese citizens in good physical and mental health and with good conduct. The bachelor age range is 18–25 and the master rule gives a 35-year age limit (35周岁以下). Confirm whether age 35 is accepted and the precise cutoff and any nationality-document assessment for the applicable admission cycle.

### What bachelor documents are required?

Prepare the highest school qualification and transcript, passport page, accepted English evidence, undergraduate examination results, CV, family-income or deposit evidence, health record and police certificate. Add work evidence if experienced and a current visa/residence page if living in mainland China. Attach Chinese translations to documents not in Chinese or English.

### What extra documents do masters prepare?

Masters add two recommendations from associate professors or higher and a Chinese- or English-language study/research plan. The Chinese text gives a minimum of 800 characters; confirm the university’s length convention for an English plan. Prepare bachelor qualification/transcript, graduate English proof and the common personal and financial documents; no supervisor acceptance letter or unproved report-expiry period is added.

### What tuition and additional charges are listed?

The 2027 English business/science/engineering bachelor tariff is CNY 16,000 per year and the English science/engineering master tariff CNY 20,000. English Studies is not clearly assigned to a priced English humanities category, so request its quote. Application is CNY 400/person and insurance CNY 800/person/year. Confirm current payment instructions and any separate partner-institution agreement.

### What financial evidence and residence costs apply?

The checklist asks for family-income or deposit evidence under its USD 5,000-or-above rule; confirm the accepted amount boundary and format, with no unproved holding period. Housing references are CNY 2,600/year for four-person rooms and CNY 5,200/year for twin rooms. Confirm the billing unit, allocation, current facilities and payment terms before using them as a personal budget.

### Is Power Engineering and Engineering Thermophysics in English?

The current 2027 introduction explicitly names it among full-English master programmes, while its table row lacks an English star. The legend says starred programmes offer English teaching; it does not say every unstarred programme is Chinese-only. The route is included on the positive named statement, with the missing marker disclosed. Confirm the selected English cohort and current delivery directly.

### When can I apply and are scholarships automatic?

The 2027 guide gives an annual 1 April–15 June degree application window for autumn entry. Confirm the exact current call, examination-result deadline and registration instructions; no start month is inferred. Government and university funding follow their own calls and selection, subject coverage and eligibility. No award or fee deduction is automatic.

### How do I apply and plan arrival?

Use the university’s official international platform, submit the correct level’s documents and follow review or supplementary requests. Successful applicants receive notifications through the platform or email and final admission documents for registration. Confirm the actual teaching and residence location, payment terms, health requirements and arrival date before booking travel.
