Staff supervising graduate research students are asked to familiarize themselves with the Code of Practice for Graduate Research Degrees. This document outlines the expectations and responsibilities of supervisors, students, and Degree Committees. In addition, the University also offers short lunchtime workshops aimed at supporting new research degree supervisors; please visit the Training and Guidance pages to learn more.
Supervisors are expected to attend training and events for Supervisors as prescribed by their Faculty/Department and Degree Committee. All Faculties/Departments are expected to specify their expectations for the frequency and form of supervisions in their Course Handbook, and Supervisors should be aware of what is expected.
