HDR Supervisors register

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.
