| Итог: | Discussion paper on the role of the PhD, focusing on the evolution of the Australian PhD and its role in preparing graduates for teaching in higher education. It seeks to provoke sector-wide reflection and debate about the role of the Australian PhD in preparing aspiring academics to become effective higher education teachers. This paper begins by looking at how the Australian PhD has evolved. It then examines the kind of disciplinary training it now offers as well as any wider preparation for academic work. The paper concludes by making recommendations about how we might transform the PhD to better prepare would-be academics for the work they are likely to spend much of their time doing – namely teaching. This paper is part of a series of four interrelated discussion papers prepared for the Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT). |
