Our students are required to work independently on their research, under the advice and guidance of their supervisory team. Due to the nature of PhD study, our students spend a large amount of time studying and engaging in independent research. Students are required to have supervision meetings regularly to discuss their progress, devise an action plan for the next steps of their research or project, and to receive suggestions from their supervisory team on how to improve their project.
