For anyone who has attended this program,

what was your experience of the 3 years?

What degree title do you receive; can you use this title in the U.S.?

 

Does anyone know how this education differs/ compares with the DAOM programs

on the west coast and other ph.d. programs in China?

How much of the program is didactic and how much is clinical?

 

Thank you. K.

I have taken part in Nanjing Master's degree program.

 

IMO, it comes down to this: after you pay your fee, you are more or less

free to choose the classes you want. Other universities require entry exams

etc, Nanjing does not. You are allowed to take bachelor's classes, which is

what many foreigners do since they didn't have these classes in their

country. There are also classes especially designed for the foreigners

(mainly Koreans, Taiwanese, and people from Hong Kong) that are actually the

same as the bachelor's classes, just that they have a heating/ airco in the

classroom (!). It has also been my experience that some teachers did not

really like to teach the foreigners because they asked many questions and

were not as obedient as the Chinese students. So some foreigners would just

go to the bachelor's classes because they found the level of teaching higher

in those classes.

Here and there, there are classes especially designed for doctoral or master

s degree, often upon request.

The best part of the program is the clinical practice, if you ask me.

 

But even for the internship you need to arrange many things yourselves (as

has been mentioned on this forum lately) if you want to get something out of

it. So if you have a clear idea of what you want and how you want to arrange

it, Nanjing may be good for you. If not , you may get frustrated, a feeling

that overwhelmed many laowai I knew there.

I personally would not go back to Nanjing for a doctoral program, but that's

just me. If you find the right professor and he is willing to take you as

his student, Nanjing may be just the place for you.

In general, the degrees you get in China are not valid in your country of

origin. Not in Belgium, and I believe in the most of Europe. For it to be

valid, there must be an equivalent in your country, which is often not the

case.

 

Best regards,

 

Tom.
