Based on the latest research and covering key recent developments in supervisory practice, the third edition of A Handbook for Doctoral Supervisors is designed to support new and established supervisors in reviewing how they may make their supervision practice more effective day to day. This new edition is fully updated and extended to provide guidance on all aspects of the supervisory role, including:Recruitment and selection, including placing greater emphasis on candidate diversity;Establishing and managing research projects, from initial conception through to completion and examination;Relationships with candidates and co-supervisors, and the implementation of an explicit respect agenda in relationships with candidates;Providing personal, professional, and career advice, including monitoring the wellbeing and mental health of doctoral candidates;The implications for supervisors of the rapid adoption of online supervision and examination.With a self-interrogatory style which enables supervisors to reflect upon and, where appropriate, consider how to enhance their practice, this key handbook is a crucial read for those directly involved in doctoral supervision, those who manage supervisors, as well as policy-makers, administrators, and scholars within the field of doctoral education.

At the beginning of writing a thesis, many questions arise, for example:* How do I know that I have formulated a relevant research problem?* Have I chosen the right empirical method?* Are interviews or observations appropriate?* How should I structure my text to get my point across in the best way?* What exactly is a theory?* How can the quality of my work be assessed?Crafting Your Thesis is a broad and accessible handbook in qualitative methods that gives you clear and concise answers to these questions - and many more. The book can be used both in introductory university courses, where you as a student encounter questions of method for perhaps the first time, and right up to Master's thesis level, where it gives a quick overview of different available qualitative methods and highlights questions that must be dealt with when crafting the thesis.
