Long description:

Based on the latest research and covering key recent developments in supervisory practice, the third edition of A Handbook for Doctoral Supervisors is designed to support new and established supervisors in reviewing how they may make their supervision practice more effective day to day. This new edition is fully updated and extended to provide guidance on all aspects of the supervisory role, including:



  • Recruitment and selection, including placing greater emphasis on candidate diversity;

  • Establishing and managing research projects, from initial conception through to completion and examination;

  • Relationships with candidates and co-supervisors, and the implementation of an explicit respect agenda in relationships with candidates;

  • Providing personal, professional, and career advice, including monitoring the wellbeing and mental health of doctoral candidates;

  • The implications for supervisors of the rapid adoption of online supervision and examination.

With a self-interrogatory style which enables supervisors to reflect upon and, where appropriate, consider how to enhance their practice, this key handbook is a crucial read for those directly involved in doctoral supervision, those who manage supervisors, as well as policy-makers, administrators, and scholars within the field of doctoral education.
