Supervising PhD Research

Supervising scientific research is a complicated process. The nature and possibilities of the researcher, the supervisor (s), and the type of research determine the best (intervention) strategy. The course aims to expand the repertoire of PhD supervisors, enabling them to offer supervision more efficiently and effectively.

As a daily supervisor or (co)promoter you are a content expert, but also a (co)researcher, coach and assessor. Supervisors learn to handle these roles more efficiently and effectively in this course. Topical questions are raised as: "How do you help the PhD student to become an independent researcher?," "How do you signal problem behavior in time and how do you deal with it?", "How do you take different personal work and learning styles into account?” and “How do you communicate about mutual expectations?”
