Every postgraduate student is allocated a supervisor, or in some cases supervisors, on admission.
The Student must report regularly to his or her supervisor. For those undertaking research, the supervisor has to approve the topic of research, to make a biannual report on the student's progress and to assist and advise the student in the preparation of the thesis or dissertation.

As well as organising seminar programmes and meetings to discuss points of concern, it also intends to act as a focus for social and leisure activities aimed at fostering a community spirit amoung such students.
