    Normally the student will have contacted a supervisor before applying to the degree program and discussed a potential research question. The supervisor will be a faculty member who has agreed to support the student's research by providing supervision, space, equipment and research funds. The student is expected to develop a research question with clinical relevance, and to play a central role in project design, data collection and analysis. Students cannot be admitted to the degree program without a research project in place.
