The doctoral research journey is long and arduous, which demands academic vigour and perseverance. While much of the research work is self-directed and is pursued independently, support and guidance from a supervisor is deemed necessary. Playing the role of a supervisor, I see my role not only as a source of knowledge, but also a supporter and collaborator, providing students with constructive intellectual advice, academic and personal support, professional mentorship as well as research collaborations. Through quality supervision and mentorship, I hope my students can develop deep insights into their research area and become independent scholars in their respective field.
