Getting Started
TT CENTRAL
WELCOME.
WE'RE EXCITED TO WORK WITH YOU!
PASSWORD
The universal website password for the year is “TT26”. Please note: this password changes every year, adding the current year at the end. If you wish to password-protect your Creative Research Journal posts, you will also use this password and update it each new year.
ADVISEMENT
Advisory team meetings will be arranged at the start of your first trimester.
Your team will consist of two co-advisors. One can come from outside the programme.
You are encouraged to meet with your full team and each advisor separately each trimester.
PEERS communication
You will automatically be signed up for a TT Signal enrolled PgR group and a first year research group.
You are encouraged to form additional research topic and mutual institute-wide study support groups.
You may optionally sign out of it or pause it during Deep Focus months.
CREATIVE RESEARCH JOURNAL
You will create and maintain a monthly Creative Research Journal to document your ideas, processes, and the progress of your research, and to respond to critique in order to reflect, articulate, and digest each interaction. Find guidelines and more information in TT Central.
PRE-SESSIONS
Ahead of upcoming Intensive and residency sessions, please be sure to review the syllabi for the workshops and get started on the required reading. You will find course syllabi under Intensives in the menu bar. Reading diaries are mandatory for required readings. Find guides in TT Central.
DIGEST
Each trimester you will receive a Digest via email. Keep a lookout in your inbox for information on upcoming activities, announcements, deadlines, and opportunities. We consolidate all the Institute's communications in this single email. Please add news@tt-edu.eu to your address book to ensure you receive it.
TIME ZONES
The Institute uses UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) to coordinate sessions and meetings across our global community. To convert UTC to your local time zone, use a Time Zone Calculator. We also recommend downloading an app such as The Clock.
CONFIDENTIAL ISSUES
If you have any concerns of a personal nature please reach out for support with any staff member you are comfortable with to forward your issue to someone who can help or email directly to: aid@tt-edu.eu
