It is the responsibility of the Dean of the Faculty, the Director of the Faculty Graduate School or the Head of School to recommend suitable supervisors for appointment by the Graduate Board. Where co-supervisors are appointed, one is to be identified as the main supervisor.

Each supervisory team must satisfy the University’s criteria regarding Eligibility for Research Degree Supervision

Please note that members staff are required to attend a course on research degree supervision organised by the Staff and Departmental Development Unit before being recommended for appointment as a supervisor.
