Abstract

This research report presents the experiences of doctoral candidates at James Cook University. The findings are based on qualitative research conducted in November and December 2015. Key aspects discussed with candidates include: administrative support and processes, institutional resources and support, the supervisory experience, and the overall candidature experience. Further comment was invited on JCU as an institution, individual College experiences, and the role of the Graduate Research School (GRS). Examples of best practice from the student’s perspective include the cohort initiative, College based mentoring programs (often lab based or research writing groups) and the social support network for international students
