• Abstract:

  There are various dimensions that determine the training of novice researchers through postgraduate programs, ranging from the teaching strategies used by teachers, the relationship established by the teacher, as thesis supervisor-tutor, with their students, to the social and cultural environment reflected in the joint work produced by the teacher and the master's or doctoral student, which is the result of their collaboration. The explanation for this fact must be holistic, since the work of teachers is influenced by different aspects inherent to the teaching process, such as contextual, sociocultural, and personal aspects, in addition to those inherent to the teaching process applied in the teaching of research methodology, its techniques, and the regulations governing the training institution.
