• HUST at a Glance https://www.hust.edu.cn/xxgk/xxjj.htm

  The official university profile confirms the institution name, university status, 119 undergraduate majors and the Wuhan address.

  Used for name, city and undergraduate scope normalization.

• Undergraduate admission plan https://zsb.hust.edu.cn/bkzn/zsjh.htm

  The official undergraduate admission plan lists broad admission categories such as mathematics, materials, electronic information and computer categories with included majors.

  This supports the broad-category entry fact used for programChoice.

• Notice on major allocation https://ugs.hust.edu.cn/info/1142/7285.htm

  The Undergraduate School describes regular major allocation for students admitted by broad professional categories: students submit preferences, schools select and students then enter the professional training stage.

  This directly supports programChoice = 2 as post-enrollment main-major choice.

• 2025 undergraduate training plans https://ugs.hust.edu.cn/info/1146/7142.htm

  The Undergraduate School publishes six official 2025 training-plan volumes for ordinary undergraduate students by disciplinary group.

  This confirms structured program curricula rather than an individually designed open curriculum.

• Application notice for on-campus minor bachelor's degree https://ugs.hust.edu.cn/info/1142/7190.htm

  The notice confirms post-enrollment application for on-campus minor bachelor's-degree study by cohort, with 25 credits for minor study and 50 credits for the minor bachelor's degree.

  It is treated as boundary evidence rather than support for programChoice = 3 because it has separate registration, fees, weekend or vacation teaching and notation in the main degree rather than a normal major plus minor curriculum.

• Selection of general education public elective courses https://ugs.hust.edu.cn/info/1142/7304.htm

  The Undergraduate School notice states that ordinary undergraduates from many schools must complete general education public elective credits and choose courses by interest through the university system.

  This supports courseChoice = 3 as broad internal elective choice; ordinary external course choice is not documented.

• Public elective course timetable https://ugs.hust.edu.cn/info/1151/7307.htm

  The timetable page publishes a common semester list of main-campus quality education foundation elective or public elective courses.

  This confirms a shared selectable pool beyond a single program curriculum.

• 2025 undergraduate enrollment, faculty quantity and structure https://xxgk.hust.edu.cn/info/1053/3717.htm

  The official Huazhong University of Science and Technology information-disclosure page states that the university had 29,742 full-time undergraduate students in 2025.

  The same record is dated 21 October 2025 and gives the faculty count as of 31 August 2025. The catalog stores the full-time undergraduate figure; the specialist degree level does not apply to the Chinese model, so specialist enrollment is stored as 0.
