2 grammatic questions

[wang.cupid]

Hi everyone,


In this sentence,

As a matter of fact, I have been admitted by the PhD program of Electrical Engineering and will be supposed to conduct research in the fast-growing and promising field of Fault Tolerant Embedded Systems with my superviosr Dr. X, who has promised to fund me with $1500 per month.



1. Is "will be" correct?
2. Do I need "with" here?


Thank you very much!


By the way, are there any other grammtic errors in this sentence? If yes, could you please point them out?

1 I'd change it to will conduct research or to conduct research. Supposed suggests that you might not actually do the work.
2 I don't see the need.

I think that you can also put in the present continuous "also used to refer to the near future" and it becomes : ....and I'm supposed to become....
2 . I don't think that you need "with".

You are asking two grammar questions, wang-cupid.

And you want to know if there are any other grammatical errors.

Avoid grammatic, even if the word actually exists.

'I am supposed to' is not present continuous; that would be: 'I am being supposed to', a highly unnatural form with 'be supposed to'.

All good comments but to summarize from my viewpoint:
1) change will be to am
1a) This leads to Tdol's comment...why supposed? :) But I am ok with "am supposed to"
2) with is optional here

[DZuser]

'I am supposed to' is not present continuous; that would be: 'I am being supposed to', a highly unnatural form with 'be supposed to'.

you're right I made a mistake it's not the present continuous "a hudge mistake" thanks
but is it wrong to say "i'm supposed to "? from' be supposed to" !!
"I'm being supposed to " doesn't sound correct ,right?
