OSCAR - a survey of supervision

Published 14 December 07 09:57 AM | robyn.owens 
All research students should recently have received a letter asking them to complete an online survey on supervision. The survey questionaire is called OSCAR - On Supervision, Candidature And Research. It only takes a few minutes to fill in, but the results will give us valuable information about where to focus our resources in order to improve things for you and for future students. Your participation is encouraged.

I've recenly completed the OSCAR survey and I'm pleased to say it was very quick and painless.

I'd be interested to see some of the results when they are available - will these be available to students as well as staff?

yes, amazingly painless! I was expecting a lot more...

I'll endeavour to follow up with the results to students, including a post to myResearchSpace, as soon as they are available. This won't be until sometime early in the New Year. Thanks for participating.

About robyn.owens

I started my academic life doing a BSc (Hons) in Mathematics at UWA before going to Oxford to complete an MSc and a DPhil, also in Mathematics. I then spent three years in Paris at l'Université de Paris-Sud, Orsay, continuing research in mathematical analysis and going to lots of movies before returning to UWA to work as a research mathematician. I have lectured in Maths and Computer Science at UWA, as well as for short periods at Berkeley, The University of Canterbury in Christchurch, and Prince Songkla University in Thailand. My research has focussed on computer vision, including feature detection in images, 3D shape measurement, image understanding, and representation.
