Dear all
I'm responding regarding the recent exchange of emails about PhD
supervisors which I think was initially raised by Sinéad.
Although PsyPAG don't specifically have a representative on the
committee who has the remit of looking at this topic, we thought it
was an interesting discussion and certainly one which has enormous
impact on postgraduates. Laura Neale the current PsyPAG chair has
asked me to add this to the agenda for our next committee meeting
which is on 22nd November and so we will report back. As pointed out
by one of the contributors, we did have an award for an excellent
supervisor but this didn't run last year possibly due to lack of
nominations, however I am not sure. Our awards sub-committee has
recently had an overhaul and so I will ask them what the future
direction of this particular award might be.
If Sinead or anyone else does take this forward we would certainly be
interested to hear what happens.
Best wishes
Emma
