2016 and March 2017. A Stage 1 Progression Report, ranging between 6000-14000 words was made available to the panel prior to the presentation. The purpose of the exercise is to enable postgraduate candidates to demonstrate that they have made sufficient progress to-date and have the potential to continue. It is an opportunity for serious reflective progress but should not require a long period of absence from lab work/data collection to write the report. The review is undertaken after approximately the first 12 month study period. Doctoral Studies Panel All PhD students are required to have at least one meeting per year with their Doctoral Studies Panel (DSP) to ensure the quality of their research and provide advice and support for both the candidate and the supervisors. The DSP comprises the two supervisors and two independent advisors.
