PhD mentors

The PhD mentor ensures that appropriate attention is paid to the process-related aspects of supervision from the outset. The intended roles of the mentor in this are:

  • to act as a sounding board;
  • to provide support to the PhD student, focusing on the PhD process and reciprocal relationship and drawing attention to potential bottlenecks;
  • to refer to other relevant people within the organisation.
