Key facts:
Within the first 18 months of study the student will submit a research proposal and present it to the committee. Later in the degree the student will present a progress report to the committee, and finally, the outcome of the research will be presented in a departmental seminar setting. Once the thesis is submitted it is evaluated by the advisor and two external experts. Further details of the procedures can be found in the link above.
Admission Requirements:

The student should emphasize in their statement of research interests how the proposed research relates to the suggested potential advisors.
