PGR Supervisor Development

PGR Supervisors Network on Canvas

On the PGR Supervisors Network Canvas site you will find a wide range of training and support for developing your practice as a PGR supervisor. These resources are designed to make you reflect on your current practice as a supervisor, to help you make deliberate choices in how you approach your supervisory practice, and to underpin your practice with scholarly evidence. The PGR Supervisors Network is aimed at supervisors on all Postgraduate Research Degrees, including PhD, MPhil, MD and Professional Doctorates.

On the Canvas site, you can access compulsory online training modules for new supervisors and internal examiners, as well as a wide range of further developmental support. You will also find information about our upcoming PGR Supervisors Network seminars.

PGR Supervisor Network Seminars

As part of the PGR Supervisors network, we are hosting monthly lunchtime seminars online (Wednesdays 12noon until 1:30pm). These meetings are an opportunity to hear from and share with fellow PGR Supervisors, and discuss supervisory practice and challenges with colleagues from across the institution.

Details about upcoming, and past, seminar sessions are available on our Canvas resource hub. We would like to make sure these sessions are relevant and useful for you, so please do get in touch if you have thoughts or ideas for future topics:
