Aim and content Are you a busy research supervisor looking for strategies on how to make your supervision even more efficient and fruitful? And would you like to get inspiration from other experienced supervisors? Then you will find this advanced seminar very relevant. The setting is a 2-day residential course, and the teaching form is highly interactive, tailored specifically to your needs, and based on sharing local best practices among experienced supervisors at SUND, KU. The seminar is facilitated by two internationally leading educational developers within the field of PhD supervision. We are looking forward to taking supervision to the next level together with you! The main purpose of the seminar is to support scholarly based reflection and exchange of best practices among experienced supervisors at SUND to ensure a high-quality PhD education. The purpose is also to increase participants’ awareness of their role as culture bearers and research leaders while being PhD supervisors. Target group Experienced supervisors who have supervised and completed at least five PhD students as principal PhD supervisors. Alternatively, PhD Supervisors, who can document that they have equivalent experience to this, can apply for exemption via email to the Graduate School: graduateschool@sund.ku.dk. Learning goals After the seminar you are able to: • balance a multitude of dilemmas in supervision • solve concrete challenges in close collaboration with your colleagues and rely on your own judgement in critical cases • ask questions that promote your PhD students’ independent thinking and ownership • prevent, address and mediate potential conflicts on an individual and group level • use the research community as a resource in supervision and to orchestrate different interests and expectations in a group • support PhD students’ well-being and role-model an appropriate work-life balance in academia • formulate a strategy for how to continuously develop your PhD supervision practice Teaching format The basis of the seminar is your experiences and best practices, and therefore, the teaching form is highly interactive and composed of many formats: short presentations by the teachers/facilitators, plenary discussions, group exercises, casework, walk-and-talk, Forum Theatre and participant presentations. Presentations by the facilitators will focus on providing a range of research-based tools applicable to the participants' practice.
