Supervision for New Supervisors

Supervision for New Supervisors.

This programme is aimed at people who are probably new to formal supervision, taking responsibility for a student who is doing a Bachelor's, a Master's, or even a PhD degree.

The content reflects my background experience as a lab-based researcher but the principles of supervision, support and monitoring are widely applicable.

You may well have had informal experience of supervision for many years and now you have responsibility for getting the student to their destination, that formal qualification.

During the workshop, over 10 lessons, we explore:

• The roles/responsibilities of a supervisor

• The roles/responsibilities of a PhD student

• Researcher career destinations

• How to use & structure supervisory meetings

• Plans for monitoring student progress/development

• Preparing their student for thesis submission and for the viva exam.

I hope that whets your appetite for what comes next. Dip in as and where you need it. It is ordered in a logical flow and you can start at the beginning and work your way through to the end.
