Once you have identified your academic subject area and idea for your research project you should aim to make contact with potential supervisors.

Your supervisory team is a vital part of your research degree experience, so you should seek to identify academic supervisors whose interests complement and align with your own. As a research student it is your responsibility to work proactively with your supervisory team.

Your work will be reviewed and discussed annually at a progress review meeting, chaired by a senior researcher.
