Modern processors exploit instruction pipelining and instruction-level parallelism. It is only natural that similar techniques are applied for the PhD study pipeline. Student pipelining breaks the study into several pipeline stages, while student-level parallelism allows multiple students to be at the same stage at the same time. Despite the trends in hyper-pipelining to achieve a very high clock frequency, we choose not to employ hyper-pipelining so that each stage corresponds to a tangible milestone.
