e-Prog
During your time with us you'll use eProg, a University-wide system that is designed to help to structure and break down a research programme and monitor progress, both for you and your supervisors.
It is useful to think of eProg as split into three main functions:
- Progression – It monitors and records your progression from the point of registration to the point at which you submit the Notice of Submission form.
- Submission to examination – It monitors and records the submission to examination process from the point at which you submit the Notice of Submission form to the point at which your final award is ratified.
- Training – You can book researcher development training via eProg and keep a record of all training you have attended (this is also visible to your supervisors), which is useful when writing CVs or job applications.
The benefits of eProg to PGRs:
- It helps you to stay on track to submit your thesis on time.
- You can use eProg to track your progression and plan targets.
- You and your supervisor can view your progression history and meeting logs remotely at any time.
- All completed milestones and forms remain in eProg and can be referred back to.
eProg is an interactive tool for you and your supervisor, and offers an online platform for you to record and track key progression milestones throughout the programme from the point of registration to examination.
You and your supervisors will be expected to complete the following core milestones throughout your studies:
- Initial Personal and Professional Development Plan
- Expectations
- Skills audit
- Quarterly Research and Personal Development Review
- Progress review report submission
- Progress review
