Research application questions

When should I contact a potential supervisor?

After clarifying your proposed topic and preparing a concise research summary, academic CV and evidence of fit with the supervisor’s work.

Can CGS guarantee a scholarship?

No. Funding decisions are made by governments, universities and research teams. We help you identify appropriate opportunities and prepare a stronger application.

Do I need publications for a PhD?

Requirements vary. Publications can strengthen a profile, but universities also consider prior research, grades, proposal quality, methods preparation and supervisor fit.
