The University of Turku Graduate School (UTUGS) and Åbo Akademi University (ÅAU) organize doctoral thesis supervision training. The training covers themes related to doctoral thesis supervision and supports working as a doctoral thesis supervisor.

The training forms a coherent whole dbut each of the parts can also be participated in individually.
 
The training is targeted at all supervisors of doctoral theses: those who have just started their career as a supervisor but also for those with more experience. In addition to having a chance to learn more about the supervision, the training offers a possibility to discuss with other thesis supervisors and learn the best practices.
