Toolkit for Post-Graduate and PhD Supervisors: Utilising Digitalisation to Support Training and Supervision

This Post-Graduate Research Supervision Toolkit is designed to assist supervisors in effectively guiding PhD students throughout the entire research process, including within digital environments. It provides practical resources, tools, and templates for every stage of supervision, from setting expectations and developing research plans to addressing challenges and preparing for thesis submission. The toolkit features guidance on essential software for managing references and data, collaborative platforms, data analysis tools, and cutting-edge AI resources. By offering structured support and integrating modern research tools, this toolkit empowers supervisors to foster student success and achieve high-quality research outcomes. While primarily focused on supervising PhD students, it also offers valuable insights and practical guidance applicable to supervision of young researchers, accommodating differences in research scope and expectations.
