JISU attaches great importance to this re-examination work. According to the “Regulations on the Management of National Postgraduate Enrollment in 2020 (Teaching Letter〔2019〕6th)” and the “Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Education on Doing a Good Job in the Reexamination of National Postgraduate Students in 2020 (General Office〔2020〕4th)”, JISU carried out the re-examination work of postgraduate enrollment in 2020 on a safe, fair and scientific basis. With remote examination using the internet, all schools adopted the method of “main platform + standby platform” and required candidates to prepare and test their devices in advance.

The re-examination is conducted in the form of structured questions and answers including a comprehensive interview as well as foreign language listening and speaking.  These questions examine the candidates’ basic professional knowledge, logic thinking, language proficiency, problem-solving ability, innovative potential, and moral quality. The content of the original professional written test is included in the remote comprehensive interview assessment.

The university's postgraduate admissions leadership team exercised unified leadership over the postgraduate re-examination work, and the graduate school was responsible for formulating and organizing the implementation of the re-examination work plan. Ten schools, including Graduate Institute of Interpretation and Translation, respectively set up postgraduate re-examination work leadership groups to create detailed plans and guarantee the implementation of principles. The university’s Discipline Inspection Committee supervised the process. The president office, the graduate school and all training schools organized and cooperated with relevant departments to ensure that the postgraduate re-examination work was carried out safely and orderly. The re-examination of candidates for transfer will be conducted after May 20th.
