Physics Higher Degree Supervisor Training Workshop Announcement

Published in the Research School of Physics Event Horizon
Vol46 Issue28 19–23 July 2021

Repeat of Workshop 1
Note: if you attended the Workshop on the 16th of April, this will be the same workshop. We plan to hold workshops on new topics later this year.

Topic: Establishing the student-supervisor relationship
Aim: This workshop will empower supervisors to effectively clarify expectations with their students and thereby optimise the value of the Candidate-Supervisor agreement

In particular the workshop will provide supervisors with

  1. The opportunity to learn about the value of this process in establishing a platform for students to succeed - including perspectives from current or past students
  2. The chance to hear from other supervisors about their expectations - including supervisors from other fields
  3. The chance to reflect on their own expectations and alternative modes of work
  4. Specific discussion of the ANU student-supervisor contract documentation 
  5. Specific discussion on negotiating agreed terms and addressing issues that arise out of the contract not being met 

When: 12:45-2:45 pm Friday 10th of September 2021
Where: Physics South Leonard Huxley Teaching Room, H4.20 Building 56
