Section 2 – Candidate’s Response to Expert Review (Task 1)
If the Expert Reviewer recommends revisions, the HDR Candidate must complete
this section. If no revisions are required, this section is
not required.
When the GRS has received the Expert Reviewer’s report, the report must be provided to the
Candidate and the Primary Advisor. Normally the Candidate, their Primary Advisor and Industry
Partner should meet to discuss how the Expert Reviewer’s feedback and recommendations will
be used to amend the proposal. If the Expert Reviewer recommends substantial revision to
the Research Proposal, their recommendations will need to be discussed to determine if
the amendments are able to be completed within the 4-5 months internship.
The Candidate must then use the Expert Reviewer’s report and their Advisors’
amend the research proposal.
To ensure that it is clear to the Primary Advisor and Industry Partner how
responded to the Expert Reviewer’s feedback and recommendations, the Candidate is required
to complete the “Response to Expert Reviewer’s Report” table in this form.
If the Primary Advisor and Industry Partner considers any of the Expert Reviewer’s
recommendations to be unnecessary or inappropriate, their reasons must be explained in the table
below. Please ensure all responses in the table are presented in a neutral and professional tone. If
the table below is not sufficient additional pages using the table headings provided
attached.
Where should this form be submitted next?
Once the Candidate has made the amendments required this form should be submitted to
the Primary Advisor and Industry Partner.
What happens next?
The Primary Advisor and Industry Partner will review the revised proposal and the
Candidate’s response to the Expert Reviewer’s Report and provide their assessment and
signature. Both forms will then be submitted to the GRS.
