All Student Supervision entries may be edited / updated if required.
Student Supervision entries may be manually sorted into a logical order which will be used when generating CVs and displaying on websites. It is useful to add student listings from earliest years to current years as the last record entered is always added to the bottom of the list.
Each Student Supervision entry on this page will be listed in a new row and will be displayed alternately in a blue / black font colour. This formatting is only used within the Researcher Profile context and purely for ease of visual display of multiple entries.
When making a selection in the Supervisor field, the Primary supervisor is interpreted as Co-supervisor within the NRF system context.
