PhD Supervisor Development Programme 2024-25
The Doctoral College is pleased to share details of forthcoming workshops as part of the PhD Supervisor Development Programme at Ulster. These workshops have been put in place to support supervisors in their role, to share good practice and provide relevant updates from the Doctoral College.
The workshops will take place online to maximise accessibility and to encourage cross-campus and cross-disciplinary participation. There will also be opportunities for PhD Supervisors to meet informally on campus as part of new PhD Supervisor Network – a community of practice – to support the practice and development of PhD Supervision at Ulster. The Supervisor Development Programme is available to all academic staff at Ulster. It covers a range of skills for both new and established supervisors.
