If candidates have completed courses in the supplementary knowledge block during their undergraduate studies, they may be exempt from the courses they have already completed. The exemption will be determined by the university's admissions council after careful consideration.

ADMISSION TARGET

Right field – Appropriate major

Candidates must have graduated from regular university programs in Management Information Systems (52340405), Information Systems (52480104), or related majors with suitable training content.

For candidates graduating from university programs not listed in the Ministry of Education and Training's list of university programs or those listed but with a different name and code than the two majors, Management Information Systems and Information Systems, with training content similar to Management Information Systems, the university's admissions council will review and make decisions on a case-by-case basis.



In addition to the majors mentioned in the correct and closely related major lists, candidates graduating from undergraduate programs in the fields of Business and Management can still apply for admission.

For candidates graduating from undergraduate programs not listed in the catalog of university-approved undergraduate programs issued by the Ministry of Education and Training, or those listed but with different names and codes from the closely related major list above, the university's admissions council will review and make decisions on a case-by-case basis.
