The PhD in Information and Communications Engineering at Beihang University (Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics) is a full‑time, research‑intensive doctoral programme within the School of Electronic and Information Engineering, offered as part of Beihang’s nationally recognised Information and Communications Engineering discipline, which is a core part of the university’s engineering research portfolio and strongly connected to aerospace and advanced networking technologies. The programme is typically structured for four years of full‑time doctoral study, combining advanced coursework with substantial independent research, publication expectations and a doctoral dissertation under the supervision of experienced faculty. At Beihang, this discipline covers key research directions such as space navigation and space–time services, space information perception/processing and transmission, new air‑ground integrated navigation systems, integrated information networks of sky–land–sea, and deep‑space detection communications, reflecting its alignment with frontier problems in communication and information systems in aerospace contexts.
