3.7 Study away

Candidates may be permitted in certain circumstances to pursue a part of their research at institutions or locations outside their approved campus location (internal candidates) or study site (external candidates). In such cases, the Graduate Research Committee will need to be satisfied that:

• the period of study away is an integral and essential part of the research;
•  any coursework or training requirements can be met prior to any relevant milestones;
• adequate arrangements for supervision are in place; and
• the facilities available are adequate for the conduct of the research to be undertaken.

Application procedures for study away are discussed in Section 4.3. See Section 15.2 of the Doctorate Regulations.
