Annual Appraisal

As part of the Academic Regulations for Higher Degrees by Research (including Stage 2 Part 2 of Professional Doctorates) all PGRS students should undertake an annual appraisal. See the full details of the requirements in Section 4.5 Annual Appraisal.

Please see the Research Student Handbook for further guidance and timings on the annual appraisals.

Don't Forget:  You can use Skills Forge to track the Research Training undertaken and print out a copy to be included in your Annual Report Form.

The Annual Appraisal has a specific deadline which is set based on the student's intake. Details of the deadline are given in both the student and supervisor's handbooks.  Any students who have Appraisals outstanding following the deadline for submission to the Research Section will have Withdrawal of Service (WOS) activated.

If you have any questions regarding any of the forms or requirements please contact one of the Research Section Team or email them on researchdegrees@port.ac.uk
