First Supervision Tips

Source: Stephanie Bramley, PhD Researcher, Graduate Junction member, Added By:

So I had my first supervision meeting a few months ago now. Prior to the meeting, I was unsure about what to prepare in advance of my meeting and even though I had a look at a variety of books about "How to get a PhD" none of them seemed to answer my question, so I thought I'd give you all a few top tips:

Be prepared to answer the question -"What do you want to find out/know at the end of your PhD?"
Think about how much "impact"your research will have.

Make sure you have a idea of the research questions that you have identified (even though they may be very vague!).

Don't be scared, your supervisors have faith in you and your abilties so be confident about your intended research project during your meeting.

Discuss the Research Training Programme and identify which skills you want to learn/brush up on - better to do this early in the PhD than later.
Listen and make notes! You won't be able to remember everything that you've discussed after the meeting so make notes.

Always agree the date of your next meeting and what you are expected to prepare for your next meeting.
