Q&A

High-Level Research Publication Programme

The High-Level Research Publication Programme is designed for students at the university level who wish to engage in substantive academic inquiry, accumulate research experience, and produce demonstrable scholarly outputs. Based on the student's academic foundation, target discipline, application objectives, and programme expectations, the programme is offered in two formats: the One-on-One Research Mentorship Programme and the SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme. These formats are designed to address the varying needs of different students with respect to the depth of personalised support, research output standards, and publication objectives.


Programme Details and Structure

Audience: University-level students
Format: Individual, one-on-one live online research mentorship
Date: Flexible scheduling based on the student's research plan and project timeline
Location: Online

Programme Options

1. One-on-One Research Mentorship Programme

The One-on-One Research Mentorship Programme is designed for students who wish to pursue customised research aligned with their personal academic interests. Supervision is typically provided by doctoral candidates, postdoctoral researchers, research fellows, or professors in the relevant field. Based on the student's academic foundation, target discipline, and future application objectives, a research topic tailored to the student's individual development is designed. Under the sustained one-on-one support of a mentor, the student completes the full research process — from topic selection and literature review to research design, data analysis, and academic writing.

This programme is particularly suited to students who value a high degree of flexibility, strong personalised support, and the opportunity to produce an independent scholarly output centred on their own intellectual interests. Through ongoing mentor communication and phased feedback, students not only complete an academic project but also progressively develop their understanding and articulation of a specific disciplinary field.

  • 15 hours: The 15-hour programme includes one introductory session and 15 hours of one-on-one online mentorship with a doctoral supervisor, with a typical project duration of 4–6 months. Under the mentor's guidance, the student will complete topic selection, research, writing, and output compilation, producing an English-medium research paper.

  • 20 hours: The 20-hour programme includes one introductory session and 20 hours of one-on-one online mentorship, with a typical project duration of 6–9 months. The mentor will design a bespoke research topic tailored to the student's research interests, academic foundation, and future development goals, and will guide the student in producing an English-medium research paper that meets academic standards.


2. SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme

The SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme is designed for students who already possess a solid academic foundation and wish to complete a higher-level research output, with the specific goal of producing a manuscript suitable for submission to an international peer-reviewed journal. Based on the student's disciplinary background, research foundation, existing data, or preliminary topic ideas, the programme matches the student with a mentor in the relevant field and provides one-on-one supervision across all stages of the research process — including topic refinement, research design, literature review, data analysis, academic writing, journal selection, and submission preparation.

In contrast to standard research mentorship, the SCI/SSCI Paper Supervision Programme places greater emphasis on the academic significance of the research question, the methodological rigour of the research design, the structural integrity of the manuscript, and compliance with international journal submission standards. The programme aims to help students understand the complete workflow involved in producing a high-level academic publication, strengthen their capacity for independent research, academic writing, and international scholarly communication, and generate a high-quality research output that can be leveraged for postgraduate applications, research profile development, and future academic pursuits.

  • SCI Q4: The SCI Q4 track includes one introductory session and 15 hours of live online instruction.

  • SCI Q3: The SCI Q3 track includes one introductory session and 20 hours of live online instruction

Both programmes include one introductory session and one-on-one online supervision.
