Authorship, including order of collaborating authors, is an important topic for discussion early in the supervision of a HDR candidate. But that discussion can get tricky if the collaborators are drawn from different disciplines. This excellent blog post is by an experienced supervisor.

I love working with my research students (MSc and PhD) and I try to give them as many opportunities to publish as possible.
.
When a student first approaches me, I talk about where their work might be published – should it be a journal, or conference proceedings? I encourage them to think about their work as publishable and plan the work right from the start for publication. I think this is as important for my students who are completing a taught Master of Science (MSc) that includes a 3-month research project resulting in a dissertation, as for my PhD students who are in a 3-year program.
