You can go to our website to find supervisors’ information (http://ic.hzau.edu.cn/ADMISSIONS1/PROGRAMS__SUPERVISORS1.htm).

10. 为什么录取通知书上的学院和专业与我当时申请填报的志愿不完全一致？
答:少数申请者会出现这种情况，这主要是由于各国学科门类划分不一样，专业名称不统一所导致的。所以请在联系导师时，与导师充分沟通，明确说明自己想学的专业领域，并请导师在接收函的模板上填写清楚，以免后期造成不必要的麻烦。接收函里的拟录取专业将作为最终录取专业，签发教授将作为申请者导师。录取通知书一经发出，将不能更改专业和导师。
Q10. Why were the college and major on admission notice not fully consistent with the one I applied for?
A: The minority applicants will experience this kind of circumstance. This is mainly due to the different divisions of disciplines in different countries, and the major name is not unified, so please communicate fully with supervisor, and specify your research field you are interested in, and ask supervisor to fill in the acceptance letter clearly to prevent unnecessary trouble later. The proposed major and supervisor on acceptance letter will be the final label. Once the admission notice has been issued, your major or supervisor cannot be changed.
