Common use of Resources and Support Clause in Contracts

Resources and Support. ‌ A. Thesis students, like other students, have access to general University services including library, career development and employment, student learning support, Wellington University International, Māori student services, disability support, accommodation services, student health, counselling, child-care, financial support and the recreation centre, and students should be informed of these during the induction process (see paragraph 2). B. The home institution will supply standard office consumables for research purposes, including pens, paper, notebooks, scissors and staplers. Institutions will advise students of any limitations regarding consumables. C. The home institution will provide printing and photocopying for research purposes. Institutions will advise students of any limitations regarding these services. D. Any use of a University phone for toll calls must be arranged through the home institution. There is no expectation that a home institution will pay for toll calls. E. University-provided computers will provide access to all library resources, the internet, and email. University-provided computers will have standard supported software. All students have access to the software available through the VUW Software Centre or via the University website. If any other software is required for research purposes, students must discuss the requirement with their supervisor(s) and make any arrangements for the supply through their home institution and Digital Solutions, recognising that access to such software cannot be guaranteed. F. It is vital that the University is able to contact the student through email. The University will email students via their preferred email address (as specified by the student in Student Records) and/or via their @▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇ email address. Students are responsible for ensuring that they monitor their preferred email address and for keeping it up to date in Student Records. If students do not monitor their @▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇ email address, they must ensure that their @▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇ email address forwards email to an account that they do monitor. Where a home institution uses email addresses other than the @▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇, it is the home institution’s responsibility to advise students on their default email domain and of those other email addresses that are in operation. G. Discipline and subject-specific research resources, including lab supplies, equipment and dedicated research space, are made available by the home institution. Students should discuss and formally document their space, equipment, and resource requirements with their supervisors, as those requirements arise throughout the courses of their research. Students and supervisors will have ideally identified any special requirements at the time of application. If the space, equipment, or resources required to complete the research are not already available, students and supervisors must discuss, at the earliest possible stage in the research, the feasibility of providing it with the appropriate responsible person in their home institution (depending on the institution, this could be the Postgraduate Co-ordinator, the Postgraduate Administrator, the Institution Manager, or some other person). H. FGR training courses and any coursework specifically required for the research degree are included in the fees charged for the research degree. Other courses and training for professional development are paid for at the discretion of the funding provider (e.g., the supervisor or the home institution may have appropriate funding). Such requests are decided on a case-by-case basis by the funding provider. I. Students and their supervisors are expected to be familiar with the responsibilities of doctoral supervisors and candidates, as laid out in documents available on the FGR website: ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇/fgr/policies-and-resources/regulations,-policies-and-guidelines
