Abstract:
Objective:To investigate and analyze the differences of PhD student scientific research ability, employment and development among types of postgraduate students that admitted by various of doctoral admissions under the perspective of medical students to assess and optimize the existing applications-audit system (AAS).Methods:A self-compiled questionnaire was used to investigate the opinions of medical students at different grades and types on the AAS related issues. Excel and SPSS were used to perform frequency statistics, chi-square test and independent sample t-test. Results:The PhD enrolled from AAS tended to complete the paper-publication at first and second year (38.71%, 12/31; 35.48%, 11/31), while unified enrollment (UE) tended to complete in the second year (33.33%, 10/30) and seven-year degree (SYD) in the third year (40.54%, 15/37) ( P=0.021). In terms of the value of the materials required in the application stage to the doctoral research, 74.19%(23/31) of AAS students and 48.65%(18/37) of SYD students believed that scientific research results were the most helpful to the doctoral research process, while UE believed that English helped the most (26.67%, 8/30), with significant differences among groups ( P=0.002). In terms of fair recognition of enrollment in the application system, 71.53% (304/425) of graduate students believed that AAS for doctoral enrollment was fair. The institution ( P=0.001) and type of master's degree ( P=0.001) significantly affected graduate students' recognition of the fairness of AAS. Conclusion:The degree and speed of dissertation completion of the AAS PhD are prior, reflecting the advantages of AAS in the cultivation of medical doctors' scientific academic ability and achievements. The AAS plays a significant role in enhancing the reserve of high-level scientific researchers in China, and has a high recognition and influence in medical students. In the future, the application examination system will be optimized to create the most suitable way for doctoral enrollment in China.
