To find a professor, who will assist you as a supervisor, you can find an articles or books written by a professor who has researched on topics related to yours. After you contact him, he’ll decide whether to accept you as his student or not. If he accepts you, the university selection team will look at your qualifications and decide whether or not to accept you for admission.
