Students should seek their supervisors (primary supervisors and secondary supervisors) themselves. Secondary supervisors should be a faculty member of one of the three departments – Department of Mathematics, Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science, and Department of Computer Science.
Students have to complete a registration form within the registration period to enroll in ARIN7600. Each group should submit ONE registration form only. Please note that registration will not be accepted if
