一、光電系博士生適用
Students enrolled in the DOP Ph.D. program must comply with the following regulations:
博士生修畢其應修課程並通過資格考後，且其以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義發表之相關著作累計積分點數超過 4 點(>4 點)，並須符合本辦法第六條第一項各款之規定，可由其指導教授推薦，填寫學位考試申請，經本系課程委員會與學術委員會審查通過後，方得舉行口試，口試通過並辦妥離校手續後即授予博士學位。畢業論文及其發表之論文必須與光電專業相關。
A student who has completed the coursework, passed the Ph.D. qualifying exam, had the research work published in affiliation with the Department to accumulate more than four credits, and obtained signed approval from the academic advisor is eligible to request the Ph.D. dissertation defense. Regulations for counting the publication credits are stated later in this Paragraph (Article 6, Paragraph 1). After obtaining approval from both the DOP Curriculum and Academic Committees, the student can proceed to schedule the dissertation defense. The Ph.D. degree diploma will be granted only after a student successfully defended the Ph.D. dissertation and the completion of graduation requirements is verified.
The Ph.D. dissertation and the associated publications must be within the discipline of Optics and/or Photonics.
(一) 博士生取得博士班學籍之前近兩年內以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義發表之 SCI 期刊文章得列入博士班累計積分點數，點數計算依博士班修業辦法規定(表一： 作者排序之計分百分比)，但上述點數以折半計算，且不得超過 2 點(含)。惟該生若就讀博士班時，指導教授與前述文章之指導教授不同則點數不予計算。
The work published in any journal covered in the Science Citation Index (SCI) within two years before a student’s matriculation into the Ph.D. program is valid to be applied to a student’s research credit accumulation if it is affiliated with the Department and the advisor listed on the paper(s) is also the student’s Ph.D. dissertation advisor. Credit accumulation is regulated by the policy detailed in Table I. Credits thus obtained can only count 50% of the normal values and can never exceed an accumulated total of two credits.
(二) 文章點數算法為：文章刊載於 SCI 之期刊者為 4 點，其餘不在 SCI 之國內外有外審制度之期刊文章交由學術委員會討論，但所有畢業點數須有一半(含)以上為 SCI 期刊論文，且博士生於在學期間須發表至少一篇擔任第一作者(指導教授計為最後一位 作者)之 SCI 期刊論文。國際會議論文為 1 點且最多以一篇為限，該論文須為博士生在國際會議以外文口頭報告為之(須檢附相關證明及報告)。上述點數計算均須依博士班修業辦法規定(表一：作者排序之計分百分比)計算之。
Regulations of Research Credit Accumulation:
§ One SCI journal paper counts four credits, while publications in other peer-reviewed journals not covered in the SCI would need to be approved by the DOP Academic Committee.
§ In any circumstances half of the total credits accumulated upon graduation must be contributed by the SCI journal publications.
§ An international conference paper counts as one credit if it is orally presented by a doctoral student in a non-native language. Only one credit thus obtained is allowed toward a student’s credit accumulation for graduation.
(三) 各作者計分百分比如表一所列，但指導教授計為最後一位作者。
The contribution percentage distributed among authors in one journal publication is listed in Table I. The advisor is viewed as the last author in the calculation of a student’s research credit accumulation.
(四) 除本項第一款規定外，研究生在入學前發表之論文不計點。
Except for journal publications meeting the requirements listed in I-1 of Article 6, any paper published before a doctoral student’s matriculation into the DOP Ph.D. program cannot be counted toward the degree requirements.
(五) 博士生發表之論文必須以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義與至少一位指導教授共同發表。若指導教授兩位(含)以上，每位指導教授須在博士生畢業所發表之論文中，擔任一篇(含)以上之共同作者。
The work published by a doctoral student must be affiliated with the DOP and co-authored by the student’s advisor in the Department. If the student has a co-advisor, each faculty must co-author at least one journal publication with the student.
二、產業博士生適用
Doctoral students enrolled in the Industry-Academia Collaboration for Cultivating R&D Elite Program must comply with the following regulations:
產博生修畢其應修課程並通過資格考後，且其發表之相關著作累計積分 4 點(含)以上 (≥4 點，積分採計方式如本項第一款說明)，並須符合本辦法第六條第二項各款之規定，可由其指導教授推薦，填寫學位考試申請表，即經本系課程委員會與學術委員會審查通過後，方得舉行口試，口試通過後並辦妥離校手續後授予博士學位。畢業論文及其發表之論文必須與光電專業相關。
A student who has completed the coursework, passed the Ph.D. qualifying exam, had the research work in affiliation with the Department published to accumulate at least four credits, and obtained signed approval from the academic advisor is eligible to request the Ph.D. dissertation defense. Regulations for counting the publication credits are stated later in this Paragraph (Article 6, Paragraph 2). After obtaining approval from both the DOP Curriculum and Academic Committees, the student can proceed to schedule the dissertation defense. The Ph.D. degree diploma will be granted only after a student successfully defended the Ph.D. dissertation and the completion of graduation requirements is verified.
The Ph.D. dissertation and the associated publications must be within the discipline of Optics and Photonics.
(一) 積分採計方式如以下三目所示，積分之計算須至少選定以下兩目作積分累計：
Research credits must be contributed by at least two of the three categories described as follows:
1. SCI 期刊論文：產博生取得博士班學籍之前近兩年內以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義發表之 SCI 期刊文章，且該生為第一作者，則該文章得列入博士班累計積分點數 0.5 點，該累計總點數至多 1 點(含)。另於博士班在學期間該生以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義發表之 SCI 期刊文章，且該生為該文章前三作者之一，則該文章得列入博士班累計積分點數，一篇計積分點數 1 點；其中所有畢業累計積分點數至少須含該生以第一作者發表之 SCI 期刊論文之積分點數 1 點。
SCI-covered journal papers:
§ A SCI-covered journal paper published within two years prior to a student’s matriculation into this program counts for 0.5 credit, if it is affiliated with the Department and the student is listed as the first author; the DOP allows up to one credit thus accumulated.
§ A SCI journal paper affiliated with the DOP and having a doctoral student listed as one of the first three authors counts as one credit toward the student’s research credit accumulation.
§ The student’s total research credits must have at least one credit from the SCI journal paper(s) in which the student is listed as the first author.
2. 專利：產博生於在學期間以中央大學名義獲證之發明專利可列入博士班累計積分點數，一篇計積分點數 1 點。
Patents:
A Patent grant invented by an enrolled doctoral student in this program and assigned to National Central University is valid to be applied to the student’s research credit accumulation; a patent meeting such requirements counts as one credit.
3. 國際研討會論文發表：產博生於在學期間出席國際研討會，並以外文口頭發表研究成果可列入博士班累計積分點數(須檢附相關證明及報告)，一次計積分點數 1 點且以一次為限。
International Conference Papers:
An international conference paper counts as one credit if it is presented orally by a doctoral student in a non-native language. DOP allows only one credit thus obtained to be applied toward the DOP Ph.D. degree requirements.
(二) 本項第一款之作者序採計，產博生之指導教授計為最後一位作者。
The advisor is viewed as the last author in the calculation of a student’s research credit accumulation.
(三) 除本項第一款第一目之規定外，產博生在入學前發表之論文不計點數。
Except for journal publications satisfying the conditions described in II-1 of Article 6, any publications published before a doctoral student’s matriculation into this program cannot be counted toward the Ph.D. degree.
(四) 產博生發表之 SCI 期刊文章、研討會論文及專利必須以中央大學光電科學與工程學系名義與至少一位指導教授共同發表。若指導教授兩位(含)以上，每位指導教授須在產博生畢業所發表之論文與專利中，擔任一篇(含)以上之共同作者。
The graduate work, including SCI journal papers, international conference papers, and patent grants, published by and/or credited to a doctoral student must be affiliated with the DOP and co-authored by the student’s advisor in the Department. If a student has a co-advisor, each faculty must co-author at least one publication with the student.
