Graduate School - University of Portsmouth

When you start your doctoral journey with us, you'll either select your own supervisors or be allocated a supervisory team. You will have at least a first and second supervisor, and might also have an additional third supervisor. Not all supervisors need to be within the same faculty as we do encourage interdisciplinary research. Whatever you're studying, you'll be required to complete whichever of the following stages are relevant to your research degree pathway: major review, annual review, thesis submission and viva.
