[Academic] PH450: Supervisor Availability in Week 0

[Daniel Oi]

Dear All,

A provisional list of 4th year projects have been released to the students (see attached). General allocation will occur in Welcome Week (16th to 20th September). Students will need to talk to prospective supervisors and obtain their signature indicating approval of their project preference.

To assist this process, I shall be compiling a schedule of supervisor availability for students to see them about projects. Please email me with your preferred times and office number. You may want to run a small number of information sessions to talk to several students at the same time (instead of saying the same thing to many students separately). If you will be away, please indicate how students can discuss projects and obtain approval (virtual signature or appointed deputy).

Subject: [Academic] PH450: Projects for 2019-20 DRAFT 1

Dear All,

Thanks to everyone who responded. I attach the 1st draft of the PH450 Project Booklet, please check that the changes are correct. I intend on issuing the list of projects at the end of August.

I have not included projects that have already been pre-allocated to students but will keep these on file.

Regards,
Daniel.

Subject: Reminder: PH450: Call for Projects for 2019-20

Dear All,

Just a reminder that changes/additions to the 4th Year Project List are due this Friday 2/8/2019. Thanks to those who have already responded.

Students have been informed that they may approach supervisors about agreeing a project prior to the General Allocation process at the start of Semester I.

Regards,
Daniel.

Subject: PH450: Call for Projects for 2019-20

Dear All,

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the 4th Year projects, through supervision and assessment. For 2019-20 I would like to begin the process of updating the list of projects. For reference, last year's project booklet is on the idrive at Science\Physics\project\2018_2019\ Project Booklet 2018Q.docx

By default, I will assume you will be running the same project as last year. Otherwise, please give me details of any changes. New projects are always welcome. (see attached project description template). It would be good if academic and senior research staff could each offer at least 3 projects to give students a variety of topics to choose between (projects will be distributed evenly so that offering more projects will not commit you to supervising them all).

Normally, students will be allocated their projects at the start of the teaching period. However, they will have the option of approaching potential supervisors during the Summer to discuss the possibility of being pre-allocated a project if there is mutual agreement (e.g. a summer project student may wish to continue working with a supervisor for 4th Year project).

Friday 2nd August is the deadline for project changes/additions for the draft project booklet. Please also let me know if you have agreed with a student to pre-allocate your project.
