Supervisors

Before agreeing to supervise a student, supervisors should satisfy themselves that they have the necessary knowledge and expertise to supervise, that the project is appropriate for the degree concerned and can reasonably be undertaken with the resources available and in the required timescale, and they are confident that the student has the capacity to undertake the project successfully.

University

The University, through the Warwick Doctoral College, is responsible for developing policies across the University for the admission, supervision and examination of research degree students.
The University is also responsible for monitoring the implementation of these policies, and reviewing their effectiveness, within Faculties and academic departments and (through the Academic Resourcing Committee) for the allocation of resources to departments to support the provision of research degree programmes.

Departments PGRs

PGRs are responsible for complying with University regulations, communicating clearly with and actively seeking advice from their supervisors, and to contributing to the research environment of their department and the wider University.
PGRs must inform their supervisors if they plan to be away from their studies, and to take initiative in raising problems or difficulties.
PGRs are responsible for deciding when to submit their thesis for examination and must notify the University of their intention.
