In their final years , students with good academic standing are given a choice to undertake an individual research project for an undergraduate thesis . they can gain valuable additional practical experience and most of them continue to pursue their higher degrees either locally or in some well - known universities abroad 成绩优良的毕业班同学更可以在老师指导下进行一项研究计划，并撰写学士论文，以培养其独立思考和判断能力，及为日后攻读高等学位打下稳固的基础。
