RDGQs and Reviews of Progress
The planning and review process aims to ensure that HDR students have an agreed plan of activities designed and completed to support their research project.
Research degree Reviews of Progress enable students, supervisors and Research Degree Coordinators/Research Education Portfolio Leaders to decide what needs to be done to ensure that:
- the student's research is on track
- their development needs are being met
- they will have developed the full range of RDGQs by the time they graduate.
The planning and review process also articulates, elaborates and records demonstrable skills and achievements in the research degree. This process aims to:
- prompt students to reflect upon, identify and articulate research skills and achievements so that they can be used when applying for employment
- act as a useful memory aid when a student is putting together a Curriculum Vitae (CV).
In the annual Review of Progress form, you are required to report on your achievement of specific RDGQs. For more information see How to complete the RDGQ sections in the planning and review documentation
