UAIS Laboratory Regulations for Graduating Students

In accordance with the laboratory management requirements, graduating students must complete three procedures before leaving the university: work handover, laboratory agreement signing, and financial review. Otherwise, the college will not stamp the graduation approval form. These three procedures shall be finished within 7 days after the thesis defense. Hong Peng shall be responsible for recording and inspecting each procedure, while Teacher Hu shall organize personnel to supervise the entire process. Xiaowei Li is in charge of signing the laboratory agreement with graduating students. Rong Ma and Xiaowei Zhang are responsible for the financial review, which mainly verifies the following two aspects:

  • Whether there are any pending reimbursement procedures
  • Whether there are any assets registered under the student’s name

The work handover shall be organized by the group leader. The student shall hand over all research-related materials accumulated during their study period to the group leader and remaining group members. The handover materials include but are not limited to the following:

  • Equipment: Hand over the operation methods, passwords, and workflows of all purchased equipment to the group leader and remaining group members.
  • Hardware: Hand over the operation methods and workflows of circuit boards, modules, and other hardware developed with laboratory resources to the group leader and remaining group members.
  • Data: Raw subject data with explanations, subject data used in published papers, preprocessed data with processing method descriptions, intermediate calculated features with explanations, calculation results with explanations, electronic copies of the graduation thesis, circuit design schematics, PCB layouts, etc.
  • Program Codes: MATLAB or other program source codes compiled during data analysis with explanations, as well as software source codes with explanations.
  • Research Continuity Arrangement: Plans for the continuation of the graduate’s research work by the next cohort of students.
  • Data Cleanup: Students must clear all relevant data before leaving the laboratory and are not allowed to take any data out of the laboratory.
