PhD student progress is monitored twice a year.
Students have an opportunity to present their work to an audience.
Furthermore, newer students can learn from the presentations of more experienced students. Regular peer feedback can be provided to supervisors on the quality of their supervision and on the progress of their students. Staff and students in CSL have an opportunity to hear about the research interests of others in the Lab. Monitoring itself is done within research groups. Each research group leader is responsible for organising PhD monitoring in that group.
