Abstract:   (540 Views)
  • Doctoral students learn the skills, attitudes, and knowledge necessary for success in their professional scholarly community.
  • In the academic socialisation process within an internationalising academia, doctoral students in Japan are encouraged to integrate into both local and international scholarly communities, which seem mutually disconnected to them.
  • Two doctoral students and their supervisor engaged in collaborative dialogue to elicit relevant narratives concerning doctoral ‘dual-track’ academic socialisation processes in Japan.
  • This article illustrates why the students found this dual-track socialisation challenging and the advisor's dilemma in socialising the students in an international community in the Japanese context.
