The university’s expectation is that students will submit within their tuition fee-paying period. From the 2022-23 academic year submission review has been introduced to support this and will normally take place 6 months (full-time) or 12 months (part-time) before the end of the fee paying period.
Submission review acts as a way to more formally review your work plans for the final 6 or 12 months of active research and, if needed, discuss support to enable submission within the tuition fee-paying period or as soon as possible thereafter.
In 2022-23 submission review will also be applicable to students who already have less than 6 or 12 months left of their fee payment period and those who are already working in their submission pending period. This timing will be borne in mind as part of the review process.
Where submission review is due to take place within a few months of the annual review or bi-annual review, it will replace that activity.
What does submission review involve?
What does submission review involve?
The submission review process is similar to the annual review including the completion of a submission review form and a meeting with your supervisor team. At the meeting you will review your thesis plan and existing thesis chapters, your engagement to-date with the DDP and you will discuss whether you are on track to complete your active/core research and submit your thesis by the end of your fee paying period. If not, you'll discuss what support may be required.
Submission review form
Submission review form
The form is made up of two parts. Section 1 is completed by the student prior to the review meeting and section 2 is completed by the supervisory team after the meeting. The form is then reviewed by the Graduate Director.
An individual form will be created and shared with you and your supervisors directly. You can view a blank copy of the form here for information.
