This calendar is subject to change some dates will vary slightly. Adequate notification will be given of changes. Examination dates and venues have yet to be finalised to be discussed in Auckland at the Postgraduate conference in August The calendar in your thesis year shows the core programme for off-campus M.A.D. thesis students. Your primary contact is with your supervisors and you will need to schedule regular (fortnightly if you are full time) meetings with them Online student-run critiques may be scheduled. This will depend on the level of interest from the group.
