Some PhD students also choose to audit masters modules taught by their supervisors where appropriate, though this is not compulsory, nor does it involve any formal assessment.\n\nIf you are studying part-time you will be expected to attend some face-to-face meetings in the school during the course of their PhD. Although most supervision meetings can be held online, you will be asked to attend the induction sessions during welcome week if possible, and have your first supervision meeting and at least one supervision a year face-to-face with their supervisory team. You will also be required to attend/take part in all required research training, attend PG seminars where possible and one PGR symposium over the period of their registration. Wherever possible the final viva examination will be face-to-face.\n\nYou will complete a written thesis of up to 100,000 words, with expert support and advice from your academic supervisor(s). You will also take a verbal examination called a viva voce, where you explain your project in depth to an examination panel.\n\nAll periods of registration are followed by a period of writing-up (called the thesis-pending period) when tuition fees are not paid and students are writing up their thesis. You can find information about this in the University's Quality Manual.\n\nAll PhD students take part in annual review assessments to ensure that their project is progressing satisfactorily. An annual review usually consists of a written report.\n\nFor full-time students, the first year is probationary (first two years for part-time students), and the first year annual review involves a viva with an independent internal assessor.",
