The University is doing much to attract postgraduate students, from around
the world. This morning workshop provides a forum for supervisors to discuss
and review the provision of support and guidance that they can give to their
overseas students who may need additional help to settle in and adjust to
life in the UK.
Target Audience
This workshop is aimed at new and experienced supervisors who wish to
consider ways to effectively support and supervise their international
students.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the workshop participants will be able to:
Welcome and help postgraduate students from overseas to
orientate and begin to study effectively in the UK
Appreciate the importance of different student expectations
and the need to clarify roles and responsibilities
With colleagues on the workshop, develop a range of
strategies for both avoiding and responding to international
student difficulties
