Abstract	This project uses concept mapping and interview techniques to track changes in knowledge and understanding among students and their supervisors in the course of full-time research towards a PhD. The on-going work measures both cognitive change in the specific subjects that are the topic for research and in the understanding of the process of PhD level research and supervision. The data makes a unique contribution to our knowledge of research processes and an understanding of the ways in which knowledge is created by research. It also helps to provide documentary evidence of the ways in which supervisors can act to facilitate learning and discovery. In order to ensure that the results are applicable as widely as possible, the study group includes students and supervisors from among the natural and applied sciences, the arts and humanities and clinical practice. The approach is essentially ethnographic and comprises detailed case study analysis rather than any broad inferential comparison.
