Continuing training for doctoral supervisors
Being a doctoral supervisor is a fantastic opportunity to follow a doctoral student's development as a researcher. EPU arranges continuing education for both you as an individual supervisor and your group of supervisors at the department. Various forms of further education are offered; lunch colloquia, supervisor meetings or theme days. Welcome to these fora for conversations, inspiration and exchanges of experiences!
EPU arranges three lunch colloquia per semester. We invite guest lecturers to present a current and relevant topic. You will have the opportunity to meet other supervisors from different departments, exchange experiences and have a discussion about important issues related to supervision.
- 2 Dec Lunch colloquia for doctoral supervisors: Supervision training, reflections on content and design The Educational Development Unit welcomes doctoral supervisors to our online supervision seminar.
- 20 Oct Lunch colloquia for doctoral supervisors: Dyslexia - not just letters jumping around The Educational Development Unit welcomes doctoral supervisors to our online supervision seminar.
Doctoral students and senior researchers at SLU participated in a pilot mentoring program, 2019-2021. Shortly, we are looking forward to present the evaluation report.
The meetings are for you as a research supervisor to gain more knowledge in an area that can develop your own supervision and to have the opportunity to meet supervisors from other departments. The meetings include one day of training and are held 1-2 times per semester. Dates are announced continuously in the calendar.
Scheduled meetings
