Abstract
The research reported in this chapter focuses on how the Western Anglophone system of higher degree research training can build on non-Western students' diverse intellectual heritage and linguistic assets in their transition from education to work. One approach to researching cultural diversity in school-to-work transition is to treat students of non-Western backgrounds as a source of data for analysis by Western theories.
