How to Find a Supervisor
PhD students at CITIID do NOT apply to join an individual research group. The advantage of our program is that at the start of the PhD, students will be offered a range of topics with potential CITIID supervisors. They then choose two 3-month rotation projects in the first 6 months of the program. At the end of their two rotations they are then able to make an informed decision as to which laboratory they would like to undertake the main 3 year 6 month PhD project. On our webpage we provide a list of potential PhD supervisors. Please see the link for more information.
