When a student vacancy arises on the Committee, the Chair will advertise this vacancy to current Part III and/or PhD students in the Faculty as appropriate. The Part III Committee aims to appoint one current Part III and one current PhD student to serve on the Committee. Normally one of these students will be registered with DAMTP and the other with DPMMS. The Committee endeavours to appoint students from amongst those who have put their names forward, and may take into account the balance of subject areas represented on the Committee. In the case of PhD student representatives, it is expected that they will have completed Part III prior to embarking on their PhD.
