Your supervisor

You'll benefit from their research expertise and you'll gain new perspectives from your innovative research.

Most important of all, your supervisor is a colleague and mentor. They’ll motivate you to become a confident researcher, someone who’s ready to try things that haven’t been done before. You’ll also be challenged to contribute beyond your research by undertaking placements, outreach or public engagement work, gaining teaching experience or developing business ideas.
