Annual Review of Progress of Students Enrolled for Higher Degree Studies in the Discipline of Paediatrics

Every year each student is sent a re-enrolment package. A copy of the Annual Review of Progress form, to be completed by each student, their supervisors, and a Postgraduate Co-ordinator must be submitted to the Graduate Studies Branch by 31st October. The usual process is:

1. Student assesses own progress and fills in the relevant components of the form.

2. Student meets with supervisor, who also assesses the student's progress and completes the relevant components of the form.

3. Student brings the Review of Progress form to meet with a member of the Postgraduate Coordinating Committee, goes through this (relatively briefly), with the form then to be certified/signed by the Postgraduate Coordinator.
