The Graduate Student Research Experience in CoMH
The Graduate Studies team in the CoMH is committed to facilitating the highest quality experience for our graduate research students. A Student-Centred culture is promoted such that graduate research students are valued as emerging healthcare or health sciences professionals. Lifelong and Life-wide learning for professional development is enabled through transferrable skills training modules, workshops, digital badge microcredentials and mentoring in line with the Irish University Association Graduate Skill’s statement. Particular attention is given to the professional and holistic development of graduates. Supervisor support and training is also provided to underpin the high quality of research supervision for our research students. Shared responsibility and respect are central to the supervisor-student relationship. Overall, we are committed to the supporting our students to achieve and succeed in whatever area of education or research they are pursuing, including translation of learning into their work lives, and advancing their careers.
Who supports Graduate Students on the research journey?
As a graduate student in the CoMH you will be part of a vibrant scholarly community.
As well as the supervisory team, who are responsible for the overall direction of the graduate student’s research, committee groups are active in supporting graduate education.
1. The CoMH Graduate Committee has representation from the Schools and research Centres. We develop and implement activities for an optimal student experience in graduate education and provide strategic oversight of graduate education in the CoMH.
2. An active Postgraduate Student Committee is the voice of the graduate community. Students on the committee liaise with and listen to students in their Centre/School, organize social and academic events and lead initiatives important to the graduate student body.
If you are a current student or thinking about studying with us, I encourage you to avail of all the academic support and recreational resources provided for you. Enjoy the journey!
