Exploring Post-Viva Support (Discussion Group)

The Doctoral College are constantly looking to improve how we support PGRs and supervisors and are aware that a significant focus of our provision is on what we can do prior to the viva.

With this in mind we are hold this discussion group as part of a wider research project investigating support for PGRs during their corrections period (i.e. post-viva).

This session is an opportunity for PGR supervisors to share with us your thoughts and experiences of supporting PGRs in the post-viva corrections period at Coventry University. This will be a group discussion taking place at Elm Bank and, as with all research, will be conducted in a sensitive and confidential manner.

You can find the Participant Information Sheet HERE and, if you have any questions about the project, please contact Dr Chris Day, email: ad6194@coventry.ac.uk
