HDR Supervisors register
Supervision panels tend to comprise a Principal Supervisor, one or more Associate Supervisors, and sometimes one or more Advisors
- Principal Supervisor and Associate Supervisors must be staff members at CDU and must register on the CDU supervisor register.
- Advisors include academics at other universities, industry partners, or professional staff who want to contribute to this supervision. Advisors do not need to register on the CDU supervisor register.
