Universities and faculties
Explore an access arrangement for a defined postgraduate research community.
For programmes and departments
Give postgraduate researchers practical structure between conversations.
GradGuide tools can support planning, reflection, literature work, feedback and writing while supervisors and institutions retain their essential academic roles.
A pathway for different research communities
Begin with the setting and need.
Departments and programmes
Consider tools that relate to recurring points in a programme’s research journey.
Supervisors and coordinators
Use a shared tool as a basis for a more focused research conversation.
Private higher education
Discuss the postgraduate context, participant group and support boundaries involved.
Structured research support
A practical layer around the work researchers already do.
GradGuide is built around specific research tasks. It can help a researcher arrive at a supervision or programme conversation with a clearer question, map or revision priority.
See every current toolFind a starting point
Use a self-check or sprint to identify a manageable next step.
Make relationships visible
Examine a study design, literature synthesis or set of feedback comments.
Prepare for discussion
Bring questions and priorities back to the people responsible for academic guidance.
Clear roles protect good research practice
GradGuide can support
- Structured reflection on a research task.
- Planning and organisation across current tools.
- Preparation for feedback and supervision conversations.
- Researcher ownership of the next decision.
The institution still defines
- Programme, assessment and research requirements.
- Ethics, integrity and responsible-use policies.
- Supervision roles and disciplinary expectations.
- Approval, assessment and academic decisions.
Access by discussion
Start with context, not a generic package.
No public institutional price is presented because the relevant group, purpose and access period need to be understood first.
- 1Describe the research community
Share the programme or department context and the broad group involved.
- 2Identify the useful tools
Consider which current tools fit the support need.
- 3Discuss an arrangement
Use the enquiry route to clarify access and next steps. Any organisation-specific setup would need separate scoping and confirmation.
Human judgement remains central
A tool should strengthen the conversation around research.
GradGuide does not replace supervision, institutional policy or academic review. Its role is to help researchers engage with their work more deliberately and make the next conversation more useful.
