Productive supervisory relationship workshop – June 10

June 10, 3-4:30 PM
Register for the workshop.

This workshop will be jointly led by Jane Freeman, Director, Graduate Centre for Academic Communication (GCAC), and Aziza Kajan, Director, Centre for Graduate Mentorship and Supervision (CGMS).

Doctoral students’ working relationships with their supervisor can have profound impacts on their experiences of writing a doctoral dissertation. In this workshop, we will reflect on this important relationship. We will discuss strategies for getting supervisory relationships off to a good start with mutually understood expectations, strategies for maintaining a productive supervisory relationship though clear communication and goal setting, and resources available to help if a supervisory relationship becomes problematic.
