Hosted by the Doctoral College, these one hour online lunchbite sessions supplement the regular New and Established Supervisory Development Sessions. They are aimed at all staff who are new to, or experienced at, research degree supervision and are interested in expanding their knowledge of a specific aspect or process.
Each session will be led by a senior academic who will introduce the topic, and staff will benefit from discussions aimed at sharing best practice from across BU. Bookings are arranged by Organisational Development.
Full details of each session below can be found on the Supervisory Development Lunchbite Sessions intranet page.
