Supervision

The supervisors

Each of these people takes a small number of research students at a time. Read what they work on, then ask the one whose work sits closest to yours. They answer you themselves, and nothing is owed until an agreement has been issued and you have signed it.

Supervision is a personal arrangement between you and the supervisor. The guidance, the academic judgement and the responsibility for both are theirs.

IBRTC's part is narrower. It records the arrangement, holds the agreement the two of you sign, and collects the fee on the supervisor's behalf. It does not employ supervisors, and it does not supervise you. Once the work is under way, your participation is written into your record at CISBM.

Each card shows that supervisor's fee. It is confirmed on the agreement they issue you, which you read and sign before anything is owed.
