Financial Support聽聽 聽
In most cases, the research being conducted by a student is supported largely by a research grant awarded to the student's supervisor and the University. Financial support for Graduate Students may be in the form of a stipend from the Supervisor's research grant, a scholarship from the Institute, other 成人VR视频 scholarships or an external award. In cases where a financial commitment has been made by the supervisor, this is for a minimal level of support. Students who are awarded a scholarship may no longer need additional support from their supervisor to meet this minimum. Students who work as research assistants may only work a maximum of 10 hours each week and this assistance should be related to other research projects of the student's supervisor. The Institute is not obligated to provide financial support for graduate students who are no longer receiving fellowship support or funding from their supervisor.
