International graduate students, Postgraduate supervisors, Competency model.

The postgraduate supervisors play an important role in the cultivation of international graduate students. Therefore, improving the competence level of postgraduate supervisors can enhance their ability to guide graduate students. Under the requirements of the internationalization of education, how to select and cultivate a group of postgraduate supervisors who are capable of guiding international graduate students is one of the important topics to improve the quality of international graduate students training in universities. Based on the competency model theory, this paper constructs a competency model of postgraduate supervisors from six dimensions: ability to conduct scientific research, professionalism, scientific research resources, personality quality, ability to train graduate students, and international communication ability. The aim of this paper is to comprehensively improve the guidance level of postgraduate supervisors and the quality of international graduate students training in universities. This paper not only enriches the research on the competency assessment system for postgraduate supervisors, but also provides a reference for universities to optimize the management of the supervisor team of international graduate students.
