Supervisor Training

Hugh Kearns from Thinkwell will be conducting a Fundamentals of Supervision Workshop and a Research Supervision Masterclass on Thursday 11th April.

Fundamentals of Supervision Workshop 9:30am-12:00noon

Who is it for? This is aimed at new or inexperienced supervisors or staff who are about to become supervisors for the first time.

Becoming a research supervisor for the first time can be a daunting experience. The research student expects you to know what you’re doing but you are learning the process yourself. Of course you can learn by trial and error but there are some fundamentals that you can learn that make the experience less daunting for you and more supportive for the student.

Research Supervision Masterclass Workshop 1:00-3:00pm

Who is it for? This masterclass is aimed at experienced supervisors. It will look at how to help both the supervisor and the student get the most out of the post-graduate research experience. It draws on the facilitator's experience of working with thousands of research students and research supervisors across the world and there is also the opportunity for supervisors to share their experiences of what works and what doesn't.
