Student voices are not given their due regard in higher education in Pakistan.
This came as a common concern from the research student body of MS (Masters in Science) in a
private university of Pakistan, in their informal discourses with the first writer, which penetrated
this study. The paper reports on a qualitative case study in critical research paradigm, aimed to
investigate the notion of student voices and how they are submerged by the power and hegemony in
research consultations. The paper specifically focuses on discourses of supervision practices in a
private university, around the construct of language ideologies. The study used the analytical
approach of Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) (1989; 2003). It selected
two MS (Education) research supervisees with their supervisors as two case studies. The findings of
the study revealed how language became a source of power relations between the research
participants. The study recommends equity and voice to be given to the research supervisees. It is
hoped that this research would lead the academicians towards more democratic styles of supervision.
