The Student Supervision sub-category is an important section where a comprehensive list of all your student supervision may be listed. Listings are displayed by institution, surname, year awarded and degree. There is no restriction on the total number of entries you may add.
The facility to Search for a UCT student exists for completion of the Student Number field.
This works for students currently enrolled at UCT only.
Once the student number has been entered in this field, and after clicking Search to find and select a UCT student, the information relating to this student will pre-populate the Title, Surname, Initials, Race, Gender, Citizenship, ID/Passport Number fields.
When making a selection in the Supervisor field, the Primary supervisor is interpreted as Co-supervisor within the NRF system context.
