The Next Generation Research SuperVision Project and Research England

Join us for the launch of the UK Research Supervision Survey 2024, where we reveal the outcomes of this year’s investigation into supervisory practice. Find out what issues are uppermost in the minds of supervisors, how they perceive their roles and how they see the future of supervision in the UK.

We are delighted to welcome Steven Hill from Research England, who will be providing an introduction to the survey at this event. In addition, our speakers will be discussing current trends within supervision and how the survey relates to the aims of the Next Generation Research SuperVision Project (RSVP).
