Supervision and Advising

Developing productive relationships with your research supervisor and supervisory committee is one of the most important and rewarding aspects of being a graduate student. The  (PDF file) graduate supervision guidelines help TMU’s graduate community of students, supervisors, program directors, and others involved in graduate supervision understand their roles and responsibilities.

The  (PDF file) student-supervisor checklist provides a guide for discussing mutual expectations between a graduate student and supervisor. Students and supervisors are expected to complete the checklist and the first progress report either in the fall or winter.
