- Starting with the question 'How do MSc Dissertation Supervisors view their role?', this ongoing exploratory study focusing on supervisors' perceptions of their responsibility to develop students' study, professional, and analytical skills has been undertaken within a large engineering education department in the UK. An online survey was administered to a group of supervisors responsible for guiding graduate students through their full-time master's projects during the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings suggest that the majority of supervisors believe they have some responsibility for providing individual study skills support during the supervision process; although opinions differ with regards to the level of support that should be given. Changes to the supervision approach in response to Covid-19 are also identified and initial recommendations and suggestions for future research are shared.
