2. PhD students must master the solid on this subject the broad deep specialized knowledge, basic theory and system to master two foreign languages, with independent ability to engage in scientific research, in the field of bridge and tunnel engineering technology to make creative achievements. 

3. The physical and mental health. 

Second, the research direction 

1. The bridge structure monitoring and safety evaluation theory 

2. The bridge using performance and durability evaluation theory and method 

3. The theory of bridge structure analysis and calculation method 

4. The long-span bridge construction control theory and application 

5. Computer application in bridge engineering 

6. The tunnel construction control theory and application 

7. Tunnel structure design theory and application 

Three, period of schooling, and credit 

PhD student for 3 years, period of schooling is generally 3 to 4 years (Dr On-the-job graduate student can be extended to 6 years), total credit course requires not less than 15 credits, including degree course credits 10 or more points.

Ph.D. Thesis topic should have certain theoretical significance and practical significance, should be closely related to the national economic construction and social development, should with social development and science and technology in the development of important theoretical and practical problems, high and new technology, the state funds and background of major engineering problems. 

B. topics should have certain difficulty, depth, breadth and workload, should be scientifically deal with the breadth and depth, PhD thesis to particular innovative and advanced. 

Subject reports: 

The main content of the selected topic report should include: expatiates the purpose and significance, the current domestic and foreign research dynamic and level, complete the thesis of the conditions, time limit, and expected to reach the purpose of, and so on.
