Research

This module is designed to convey the basic requirements of a doctoral degree, introduce you to the important role of your supervisory team and explore issues to consider when starting your doctorate.

This module is designed to introduce you to some of the different supervisory models and contexts that you might be working in (for example, with a supervisory team or within a wider infrastructure of support) and how you can maximise the opportunities these bring. It will encourage you to reflect on your previous experience and plan how best to build and develop positive working relationships with your supervisors.

This module is designed to help you identify the most effective approaches you can use when meeting and communicating with your supervisory team.

This module is designed to help you recognise the importance of feedback and develop a strategy for responding effectively to feedback on your research.

This module will encourage you to think through some of the possible challenges that might come up as you work with your supervisors and ways of resolving any differences. It will consider some of the skills that might help you to manage these situations and how other people can support you. It will also look at situations where a more formal resolution might be necessary.
