The complementary nature of the work undertaken by research supervisor and generic doctoral training learning advisor is considered. From its position in the ‘borderlands between disciplines’ a generic training programme’s contributions to equity and access, language acquisition, critical thinking, pastoral care and career preparation are all discussed and debated. Ultimately however, reliable measurement of the contribution of such programmes to the doctoral experience still remains elusive." - Pam Herman, a former Research Graduate School Manager at an Australian University
This multidisciplinary, multi-voiced book looks at the practice and pedagogy of generic, across-campus support for doctoral students. With a global imperative for increased doctoral completions, universities around the world are providing more generic support. This book represents collegial cross-fertilisation focussed on generic pedagogy, provided by contributors who are practitioners working and researching at the pan-disciplinary level which complements supervision.
In the UK, funding for two weeks annual training in transferable skills for each doctoral scholarship recipient has caused an explosion of such teaching, which is now flourishing elsewhere too; for example, endorsed by the Carnegie Initiative on the Doctorate in the USA and developed extensively in Australia. Generic doctoral support is expanding, yet is a relatively new kind of teaching, practised extensively only in the last decade and with its own ethical, practical and pedagogical complexities. These raise a number of questions:
Over the last two decades supervision has been investigated and theorised as a teaching practice, a discussion this book extends to generic doctoral support.
This edited book has contributions from a wide range of authors and includes short inset narratives from academic authorities, accumulatively enabling discussion of practice and the establishment of a benchmark for this growing topic.
