Research Supervisors Network
A forum for all those involved in research supervision to share resources, expertise and experiences
This network provides a forum for discussion & learning, enabling supervisors to support each other in enhancing their own practice.
Regular workshops, seminars and webinars, delivered by world leading experts in the development of research supervisory practice, provide further opportunities for research supervision professional to evaluate and enhance their own practice.
Get involved
The network is open to all research supervisors, and all those involved in research supervision, operating with the national and international postgraduate community. It is chaired by nominated representatives of the postgraduate sector.
What we do
The network produces resources and runs various meetings per year, including:
- free-to-attend online‘town hall’ meetings based on current challenges faced by the community
- A symposium at the UKCGE Annual Conference in the summer
Our impact
Alongside the personal benefits to members from learning from one another’s experiences, network discussions also inform the Council’s support for research supervision.
