Referees

Your CV should contain two referees, including their address, email and telephone number. Envision prefers referees that can comment on your academic record and potential for research at postgraduate level rather than those who will provide character references. This normally means that your referees should be members of academic staff who knew you at your present/previous university, perhaps a dissertation supervisor. It is helpful if your referees have been briefed by you on the project you are applying for. It is Envision policy to take up references of all candidates prior to making them an offer of a studentship, so please use referees that you are happy for us to contact.
