鈥溾赌�As a research-intensive institution with over 6,000 PhD students, we were delighted to be invited to take part in the pilot and explore with UKCGE how supervisory practice can be recognised and celebrated at 果冻影院. We have recently enhanced the training and development we offer to new supervisors and the Recognition Programme will offer a way for supervisors to continue their professional development by reflecting on their experience and having their achievements recognised.鈥�
