Intercultural doctoral supervision: Barriers and enablers in international PhD students' cultural adaptation and academic identity formation in an Australian university
Lim, Wai Kwen, Business, UNSW Canberra, UNSW. - : University of New South Wales. Business, 2018
Abstract: International higher education is an expanding sector of the Australian economy and a record number of international doctoral students were enrolled in Australian universities in 2018, mostly in the Group of Eight universities. Yet, there has been limited investigation into the role student educational and socio-cultural background plays in their successful adaptation, or the effects of cultural value differences on student-supervisor interaction and thesis completion. Drawing on the work of Kim (2012) on intercultural adaptation and Manathunga (2011; 2014) on transcultural learning, this study investigates how intercultural supervision affects international PhD students' cultural adaptation and academic identity formation in an Australian university. A qualitative dominant mixed methods case study research design was conducted within an Australian Group of Eight university. Qualitative and quantitative data was collected concurrently, and the data analysis and synthesis occurred over three years. The study included an online survey with 107 student responses and in-depth face to face interviews with 42 international students, 20 supervisors and four learning advisers. The study found that language proficiency is the main barrier to international students' academic adaptation and intercultural adjustment. Students' academic writing is a common problem for students, supervisors, learning advisers and department heads. Students' and supervisors' unexamined cultural assumptions often lead to unmet expectations. Also, students without a clear advanced understanding of the unstructured nature of the Australian PhD system, the critical role of the supervisor and the requirements for student independence and critical thinking take longer to be productive learners. For students, acquiring study and time management skills, having self-efficacy, a positive outlook and resilience act as buffers against the stresses of language, role and study shock. Supervisors who train and support their students in the behaviours, attitudes and values of becoming independent researchers, model cultural reflexivity, but lack opportunities to share their transcultural learning with others. The study concludes that intercultural supervision is more effective when cultural divides are crossed. By sharing their respective educational and cultural belief systems, mutual transcultural learning occurs, trust in the supervisor-student relationship is strengthened and student adaptation is expedited.
