Abstract | In recent years, the demand for and the supply of graduate education has blossomed throughout higher education. While this development can be perceived as beneficial for universities and postgraduate research institutes, an increasing number of scholars have pointed towards the potential challenges it might present. The considerable increase in the amount of graduate education has created difficulties in a system previously accustomed to offering doctoral education to a relatively small set of participants from a confined geographical region (Pearson,1999). Yet, while these developments should have resulted in an change of how doctoral education is designed and facilitated, the vast majority of (European) providers continues to hold on to the conventional picture of doctoral education. |
