Superb Supervision - Mentoring your PhD Candidate towards responsible Research Practices

Nov 12, 2024 - Nov 14, 2024

This course is designed to help supervisors of doctoral students not only to develop their supervision skills but also to strengthen their ability to integrate Responsible Research Practices into the supervision process from the very beginning. The goal is not only to strengthen a research culture characterized by openness and communication. It is just as much about creating conditions with which practices of responsible research are established early in the research process. In this way, a sustainable contribution to ensuring the quality of research is to be made.

The course covers a variety of topics ranging from issues of research culture and social skills to the teaching of responsible research practices and the critical examination of the role and self-image of the supervisor.

At the end of this highly interactive course, participants will be able to:

  • Communicate to doctoral students the importance of responsible research and how to conduct research in an ethical manner and in accordance with Good Scientific Practice requirements;
  • Develop key interpersonal skills (listening, giving feedback, coaching, managing expectations) and integrate them actively into the supervision of own phD candidates.

The course is free of charge for participants and is open for professors as well as junior research group leaders (Nachwuchsgruppenleiter*innen) of the Berlin University Alliance partners. 

Only 12 places are available.
