Working with your Supervisor New
The student-supervisor relationship is vital for success in all research degree programmes. However, the exact role of the supervisor is often unclear and sometimes it may feel as though you are not getting the support you need. This can be frustrating for students and supervisors alike, and can lead to a negative doctoral experience.
In this course, we look at practical methods for building a strong and effective working relationship with your supervisor.
