Drawing on insights from across Africa, this book investigates the
discourses and practices that guide doctoral training today. Higher
education is regarded as key for driving development and
innovation, creating an informed knowledge base equipped to tackle
local and global challenges. For too long external forces defined
education in the continent, but now African countries are
revitalising higher education, designing doctoral training to fit
distinctly African needs and contexts. This book investigates the
history, present and future potential of doctoral training on
international, regional, national and institutional levels.
Bringing together expertise from both research and practice, the
book analyses the frameworks and structures of the doctoral phase,
and how institutions, supervisors, mentors and young scholars meet
the challenges of training in real life. The book covers issues
such as access to education, proactive recruitment, funding issues,
practitioner expertise, enrolment and drop-out, across a range of
countries including South Africa, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Nigeria,
Benin, Ghana and Morocco. This book will be a rich resource for
higher education administrators and policy makers, as well as
researchers and academics with an interest in higher education in
Africa.
