BIO-6934 Research Project 5
During this term, the doctoral candidate continues their experimentation and data gathering and has regular meetings with the mentors. The student addresses any issues that have surfaced with the pilot projects and adjusts the experimental design or methodology as determined by the outcome of the qualifying examination. At this point, the Ph.D. candidate begins aggressive experimentation. Since this is the endpoint for the Master’s student, he/she must complete gathering and interpreting the data for the Master’s thesis and prepares for the thesis viva. The process of the viva is very similar to that for the Ph.D.
