We, the postgraduate students of QMUL School of Business and Management, protest against the new way of dissertation supervision provided in the form of very limited number of group meetings and require going back to the “old system” of one-to-one meetings with the dissertation supervisor. We understand the dissertation is an integral part of our Master degree programme and we feel betrayed by the lack of the support from SBM in this regards. We believe that one-to-one meetings with supervisors are key for us during our research for dissertation and without this support we are put at a serious disadvantage. Also, dissertation is vital for those of us who choose to pursue further education, such as PhD.

In case this system is not reverted with immediate effect we intend to pursue the following actions:

• Organized student protest
• Serious downgrading of university rating and student satisfaction reviews
