PhD Program Overview

Our PhD Program has three main components:

1)    Research
Your main focus is the preparation of a doctoral thesis representing a major piece of independent research.

2)    Supervision
You will carry out your doctoral research in  your advisor's group who provides the ongoing, direct supervision and support needed to establish and carry out the PhD project. A second level of supervision is delivered by your thesis advisory committee (TAC).

3)    Personal & Professional Development
Alongside this, you will participate in a supporting training and development program made up of core activities in addition to activities selected by you and your TAC.
