Why is this private correspondence going to the list? It should be
conducted off-list.
>Dear Yeung Wai Chung,
>Thank you for your e-mail and the attached letter. It was nice hearing from
>another geographer from far away.
>
>With regards to your enquiry about studying here at CURS, I would like to
>point out that we are not a traditional Geography department. There is such
>a department at this university should you wish to apply there. We are a
>department of Urban and Regional Studies within the School of Public Policy.
>This means that we are working in an interdisciplinary way, and most of our
>work has a policy element to it.
>
>I am not entirely clear from your letter whether you wish to study for a
>Masters degree here or for a PhD. As I understand it, you are just finishing
>your undergraduate degree in Beijing and you may be going for a Masters
>degree in Singapore. You could apply for a MSc here at CURS directly from
>your undergraduate degree. There are five different MSc programmes that you
>can choose between. It is not too late to apply for a place from 1 October
>2001, should you wish. If you are interested in one of these degrees -
>please contact the postgraduate admissions tutor, Mr Brian Wheeller
>([log in to unmask]). I have passed your letter on to him.
>
>However, if you are interested in applying for a PhD here at CURS, then you
>will need to take a Masters degree first. We do not admit students to the
>PhD programme directly from their undergraduate degrees. You could apply
>next year (for starting in October 2002). You would be eligible to apply to
>our PhD programme with a Masters degree from Singapore, if that is where you
>intend to study this autumn.
>
>I hope that his information has proved useful and I wish you the best of
>luck in your future studies.

>Yours truly,
