Research Progress Reviews and Confirmation of Candidature
UNSW recognises that a higher degree research (HDR) project is a long-term endeavour that you will need to sustain over 3 – 4 years if you’re a PhD candidate, or 1.5 – 2 years if you’re a Masters candidate. Research Progress Reviews are designed to help you stay on track with your research project and complete your candidature on time, while getting the most out of your candidature experience.
Reviews are intended to be a positive and productive process where you can gain recognition of your current achievements and ask for feedback on your research project and future plans from an independent panel of experts in your field. They are a requirement for continued enrolment in your degree.
If you are a PhD candidate, you will need to complete a Confirmation Review within your first nine to twelve months of candidature. The purpose of this Review is to confirm that you are on track to complete your PhD on time, and that you have completed all of the preliminary tasks including:
- PhD research plan
- Draft literature review
- UNSW Research Integrity and Research Data Management training courses
- Attendance at the HDR Welcome and Orientation
The Graduate Research School (GRS) runs a Research Progress Review Seminar that outlines how to get the best out of your Reviews and Confirmation. For information on the next offering, please visit this page .

WELCOME TO THE TEM HELP PAGES
The Thesis Examination Management (TEM) online system provides direct access to information on research thesis submission and examination. As a student, academic or administrative staff member you can carry out administrative tasks and monitor the progress of the examination of your thesis or that of your students. These Help pages are divided into sections, each of which describes a different part of the thesis submission and examination process. Within each section there is a general description of the processes covered and a step-by-step guide for your role.
Gateways and Enquiries
In most cases you will have received an email prompting you to do a TEM-related task. This section of Help is designed to get you to the page where you carry out that task. The rest of the Help site can be accessed via the links at top and bottom of each Help page. This section also describes how to get to an enquiry screen.
