Universities SA | CoP for Postgraduate Education and Scholarship Meeting | Funding and Supervision

The Community of Practice for Postgraduate Education and Scholarship (CoP PGES) held its first meeting for the year, 2024, on 26 March. This gathering was specifically targeted at addressing issues of funding and supervision. These two areas remain topical matters in the postgraduate education terrains, and the CoP PGES, in collaboration with other entities in the South African higher education sector, is constantly seeking ways to mitigate obstacles. At this meeting, the CoP PGES invited individuals who spoke to the audience and members of the CoP about their lived experiences and what they deem as solutions to the problem. Other guests provided information that the postgraduate community at large can benefit from as they continue to pursue their academic and career goals.
