Who the session is for: Postgraduate research students in their first year, prior to Project Approval submission

At the beginning of their course, students undergo Project Approval to monitor their progress using an online task within e:Vision. This session will go through the criteria to pass project approval, timelines, responsibilities and what to include. In addition, we will touch on the panel experience itself.

This session also covers a demonstration of the online submission system, to guide students who are approaching their Project Approval submission date on how to upload their work, and an opportunity to ask any questions on the functions of the online system. This course is mandatory – all first year students should attend before their project approval submission deadline.
