The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) or Abridged MoU (where permitted) should be completed by postgraduate students and their supervisor(s) when the student registers for the first time for either their Masters’ or Doctoral degrees.
The Progress and Planned Activity (PPA) Report must be completed for each subsequent year as a condition for renewal of registration.
By the time the MoU or the Abridged MoU or the PPA is initiated and/or completed, there is the expectation that there has been adequate engagement between the supervisor(s) and student. The completion of these documents is required to formalise the outcome of the discussion between the supervisor(s) and the student.
These documents and report lay out the expectations of both supervisor and student and is designed to ensure the supervision experience is mutually productive.
Care should be taken in completing these documents in full, as it is a contractual agreement.
The documents will be used in any disputes that may arise during the period a student is registered for a postgraduate degree.
This is a dynamic form where different fields will be displayed depending on your selected options. There is no limit on text input. The form does not expire and does not have a time limit.
