The department no longer requires completion of a Research Proposal Confirmation (RPC) form. However, in some cases you or your supervisor may consider that a formal research plan is desirable.

If you prepare a formal plan, it must be signed by the student, supervisor(s) and independent assessor, and emailed to the PhD Administrator Clodagh Li c.li@imperial.ac.uk
