The PhD Supervisor - Rules and Regulations.
The three faculties have three-year PhD employment positions available to offer to students who successfully complete the TI research master program. Students are advised to check with their thesis supervisor under what conditions they can transfer to a paid PhD position with that same supervisor.
Revising a thesis based on feedback from the thesis supervisor, advisory committee and from the examiners is an important part of the thesis preparation process. Part of the advancement of knowledge that preparing a thesis fosters involves engaging in dialogue and learning from these discussions, learning how to communicate clearly, and responding appropriately to suggestions for improvement.
Recently my supervisor told me that he expects me to treat those assigned projects as my PhD project and to include them in my thesis. I am happy to work on those projects as my side projects, but I want to focus mainly on my own project as it is beginning to take shape.

The structure developed provides a starting point for understanding what a PhD thesis should set out to achieve, and also provides a basis for communication between a candidate and his or her supervisor. Firstly, criteria for judging a PhD thesis are reviewed and justification for its structure is provided. Then writing style is considered.

Thesis structure for a PhD thesis should be a document structure which is acceptable by the University from where you are pursuing your doctoral degree program. It is a good practice to refer to this structure from the University and get it vetted by your supervisor.
