PhMIRT course 2026/27 planning and project topic discussion

21Oct26: 13:00

Present: C.Dunsby, R.McLauchlan, J.Hubber, K.Long, J.McGinty, R.Quest, A.Scott

Notes

1. Welcome and introduction: KL
2. Timetable, orientation and discussion: All
3. Self-study projects: All
   Project schedule and student interaction model was discussed. Mixture of Teams meetings and site visit felt to be appropriate. Guidance of one supervisor/student meeting per week felt to be OK. Clinical visits require significantly more time investment. The projects with professionals, and the site visits, remain very well received in the student feedback.

Agreed that KL would circulate last year's projects for guidance for next year (also posted here). We agreed that the solicitation for project ideas would be sent in January 2027 with a deadline of the end of the month so that the project options can be finalised in time to be circulated to the students.

4. AoB
   None.
