Search for a research supervisor
Once you have prepared the information above, you are ready to start searching for an academic staff member to supervise your thesis.
You are more likely to be successful in securing supervision if your area of research interest falls within a Flinders University Research area.
To identify a prospective supervisor, review the Flinders Research areas and select one or more that aligns to your own research experience and your proposed research project. Read the information, including Potential research supervisors. If your proposed research is aligned, follow a link from the black text box “Ready to find the perfect supervisor for your research journey?”
This takes you to Research @ Flinders Research Profiles of staff who are registered supervisors in the selected Research area.
Select a staff member and carefully review the information on the staff member’s ‘Personal Profile’, ‘Research Outputs’ and ‘Similar Profiles’ to explore whether you think they are a good match for you and your proposed research.
To contact them, open Staff Directory and type in their Surname and First name. Ensure you include your drafted Research outline and Research statement in your email to them, and let them know that you have followed the ‘Find A Supervisor’ web instructions.
If your area of interest is not one of the Research areas at Flinders, select 'Find a supervisor' below to take you to Flinders Research Profiles of all registered supervisors. Then use the other filters or type key words into the top Search to generate a list of experts by name, research or topic, centre or institute.
