PhD leave
Completion requirements
- For full-time PhD students the annual holiday entitlement is 30 working days plus the eight UK public holidays and the four QMUL closure days. Holiday entitlement is pro-rata for part-time students and for parts of a year.
- PhD students should agree their holiday periods with their primary supervisor and note this in the Supervisor Log on MySIS. PhD leave cannot be approved on MyHR so should not be requested through this system.
- PhD students should also log absences other than annual leave (e.g. attendance at conferences, research visits, etc) on the Supervision Log, after agreeing these with their supervisor.
