The PhD Workshop China provides a platform for overseas universities and research institutes to increase their PhD student recruitment through presentations of their PhD programmes to top Chinese postgraduates and PhD candidates. Institutions will have the opportunity to have in-depth interviews and face-to-face meetings with China’s top talent. Over the past ten years, the event has proved to be an effective match-making workshop through delegate-to-candidate direct communication.

Hosted by China Education Association for International Exchange (CEAIE) under Chinese MOE, in 2018 the workshops attracted more than 2,000 candidates to Beijing and Shanghai.
