Projects are in sets (P1, P2 etc) with each set having a fixed timetable (see Table below); projects must be taken from different sets. Certain combinations of sets and projects are excluded for timetable and other reasons.

Each project has a maximum capacity, due to limits on staff, space and equipment, and some projects may not run if very few students opt for them.

In the online selection page, the sets are clearly highlighted to guide you. Before you can submit your preferences, the software wil make various checks to ensure that you have sufficient valid combinations of projects. You will be prompted to reconsider if any of these checks fail.

The working relationship with your supervisor is central to achieving these aims, and for this reason your College authorises up to 1 hour per week formal supervision associated with the project.  In practice, you and your supervisor may prefer a more flexible structure.  In any case, your supervisor is expected to submit a termly report, which you can view on CAMCORS. 

Should you have any concerns over supervision arrangements, try first to resolve them with your supervisor.  If they persist, contact your director of studies.
