The
interdisciplinary field of materials science, also commonly termed
materials science and engineering, involves the discovery and design of
new materials, with an emphasis on solids. The intellectual origins of
materials science stem from the Enlightenment, when researchers began to
use analytical thinking from chemistry, physics, and engineering to
understand ancient, phenomenological observations in metallurgy and
mineralogy. Materials science still incorporates elements of physics,
chemistry, and engineering. As such, the field was long considered by
academic institutions as a sub-field of these related fields. Beginning
in the 1940s, materials science began to be more widely recognized as a
specific and distinct field of science and engineering, and major
technical universities around the world created dedicated schools of the
study.

Answer: When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not have.
The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.
To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
