Abstract

The Research Supervision Framework was designed to provide quality research supervision to increasing numbers of taught master's students. The framework was applied in six sessions from May 2020 to January 2023. 15 out of 59 students successfully published their research in peer-reviewed international conferences. A survey was conducted involving the 15 students to understand their experience and if the framework supported students in publishing their research. Findings suggest that all students had a positive experience of writing and presenting an international conference paper. Rewarding, exciting, significant milestone, and prized achievements are some of the words that students use to describe their experience. Results demonstrate that the students felt supported throughout their research supervision including publishing their research The research presented in this paper is of interest to faculty in the research supervision of master's students to gain insight into supporting students to publish in international conferences.
