When Your Supervisor Goes on Leave

Supervisors should ensure that students have accurate information about any planned, long leave or retirement during the candidature and about the arrangements to be made to provide for supervision during absences. Before going on leave, your supervisor should meet with you to discuss supervision arrangements during the period of leave.

In the case of co-supervision, the co-supervisor will normally take over responsibility for supervision in the principal supervisor's absence. Another co-supervisor may also be nominated.

Where a co-supervisor has not been nominated, it is the responsibility of the supervisor, Academic Units and student to ensure that appropriate supervisory arrangements are in place before the supervisor goes on leave.
