Research Review Seminar (RRS)

These seminars are led by our doctoral scholars as a part of their pre-registration work. Each scholar is required to lead at least four such seminars. These seminars should focus on key research themes pertaining to the topic of research chosen, as well as the related methodological issues. This process is expected to facilitate the scholar's effort at reviewing the academic literature and formulating a research proposal.
