Hi,

I'm due to start an EPSRC-funded PhD studentship in Cryptography at Royal Holloway in March, and I've been trying to find out how holidays work for PhD students.
The nature of the PhD means that I'll be in an office most of the time (as opposed to a lab).
My main query is: during the undergraduate holidays, would it be possible to leave the country, taking the PhD work with me and working remotely during the hols?

I'm guessing most unis have similar policies (or lack of) in this regard, but if anyone is currently doing a PhD at RHUL, I'd be really interested in your experiences.

Thanks in advance
