Why PhD Workshop China?
• Established Event and Key Performance
Launched in 2009 by China Education Association for International Exchange (CEAIE), the PhD Workshop China has grown into a platform connecting overseas institutions and professors with prospective PhD candidates.

The 2024 edition combined online Webinars and offline in-person interviews, the Webinars attracted more than 1,500 attendees averagely per session, while the offline workshop fosters direct interaction and targeted interviews, drawing more than 50 professors/delegates from more than 20 institutions from 8 countries attended separately in Beijing and Shanghai, and more than 2,000 pre-registered students. They arranged over 3,000 meeting requests and nearly 1,800 successful interviews conducted onsite.

These figures highlight the PhD Workshop’s role in matching qualified candidates with your excellent doctoral programs. And this dual approach also helps institutions tap diverse applicant pools and conduct thorough evaluations within a flexible schedule.

• Smart iSchedule System Facilitating Your Interviews and Meetings
The iSchedule Appointment System has been created over the past 16 years and polished year by year since the PhD Workshop China setup in 2009, as the PhD Workshop advocates direct interviews and meetings between professors/candidates and PhD candidates, where professors/candidates could make profound in-person interviews and recruitment of qualified students for specific PhD programs.

This innovative and intelligent iSchedule system enables professors not only to preview candidate registration details, such as CVs and research proposals, but also to select right candidates efficiently for one-on-one onsite interviews or meetings. This approach greatly facilitates the productivity of participation for professors and candidates. We are excited to continue supporting you in your academic and professional endeavors.
