Each student is supported by a supervisory team of two supervisors who offer regular supervision. The frequency of supervision will vary, but a minimum of ten formal supervisory meetings, usually on a monthly basis, will take place with the student each academic year. The supervisory team is expected to provide support, guidance and advice to the students throughout their research journey.
Requirements
To be successful you will need to fulfil at least two of the following requirements:
a) Possession of a higher degree by research at doctoral level
b) Clear research competence and recent research expertise, demonstrated through peer-reviewed publications, regular conference attendance, or research grant income in the past five years
c) Experience of involvement in the successful supervision of a research degree student to completion in the past five years

In addition, you will need to evidence a commitment to enhancing the student experience with excellent interpersonal and communication skills and the ability to develop professional relationships. You will need to demonstrate effective organisational skills, with the ability to apply attention to detail and meet the students’ deadlines, and be able to work collaboratively with the student, the supervisory team and the wider UWTSD team.
