List of seminars for doctoral supervisors

  1. Managing the Doctoral Process I: Selection, induction and setting the contract

  2. Managing the Doctoral Process II: The task of the supervisor, the structured 'weaning' process, the end game.

  3. Effective supervision: a case study discussion (the case study 'The Odyssey of Jackie Fisher' needs to be read beforehand)

The sessions deal with issues raised in Estelle M. Phillips and Derek S. Pugh, HOW TO GET A PhD (5th edn. Open University Press, 2010) and developments therefrom.
