Supervisor Accreditation

The University has recently adopted a formalised supervisor accreditation system for all supervisors of higher degree research students. This initiative is intended to support and encourage quality supervision and hence the quality of outcomes achieved by HDR students. The accreditation process addresses the requirement for supervisors to:

  • Demonstrate expertise in supervision and commitment to ongoing skills development;
  • Ensure that research activity reflects content expertise and a capacity to provide research training through supervisions; and
  • Be aware of the research training and candidature processes at QUT.
