Abstract
The doctoral education in engineering has emerged to cultivate adept leaders in applied engineering technology, contributing to the establishment of an innovative nation. The engineering doctoral education in China has evolved over a decade. This study analyzes doctoral degrees in engineering at four Chinese universities, examining the current state of engineering doctoral education across various dimensions, including training objectives, admission criteria, curriculum design, pedagogical approaches, and graduation requirements. Overall, China's engineering doctoral training system exhibits a gradual improvement, concomitant with a progressive expansion in scale. Looking forward, it is imperative to broaden the spectrum of enrollment, enhance the theoretical foundation of engineering doctoral students, fortify quality control measures, and implement an elimination mechanism. This research contributes to a nuanced understanding of the developmental trajectory of engineering doctoral education in China.
