<p class="MsoNormal">Dear All,<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We will need approximately 100 projects for 4th year students this year. It would be good if the load could be spread evenly across the department (i.e. ~3 projects per academic/senior researcher).<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">By default, I will assume that the same projects will run this year as last year unless otherwise advised (last year’s project list attached). Please inform me of any changes and of any new projects by Friday 26th August 2016. There is
a blank project form (also attached) for any altered or new projects.<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We ask staff to consider:<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Offering at least 3 projects each<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Offering a project to be taken by a pair of students, separately with minor variations<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Offering a project title to a 4th year student that is already being taken by a 5th year student<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">New staff especially, please consider offering more than one topics. You may want to have a more experienced staff member as 2nd supervisor to help become familiar with procedures. The 1st supervisor can be an academics, senior research
fellow, Chancellor Fellows or similar (i.e. if you are allowed to supervise PhD students, you can be a 1st supervisor on an undergraduate project). The 2nd supervisor can be any of the previous or any post-doc.<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please note the following dates (TBC):<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Wednesdays 15th and 22nd February 2017, Project Talks 1300-1730<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Week of 17th April 2017, Project Vivas<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is important that supervisors (1st and 2nd) be present at the project talks, and that the viva committee (primary supervisor, independent marker, chair) be available during the Viva week.<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
