Findings are based on data from a survey of all enrolledPhD students in two research-intensive universities in Australia, together with supplementarydata from student and supervisor interviews. Findings indicate that in the main, CRC-relatedPhD students fare well compared with their counterparts in regular university departmentsand that on a number of indicators CRC-related students recorded higher levels of satisfactionwith their course experience. This situation suggests that CRCs are playing a significant andworthwhile role in research training in Australia. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Higher Education, 44(3-4), p. 469-492 | Publisher: | Kluwer Academic Publishers | Place of Publication: | Netherlands | ISSN: | 1573-174X 0018-1560 |
