Graduate Studies Support Program

This workshop is part of the Graduate Studies Support Program of Berlin University Alliance. For an overview of all Graduate Studies Support Program events, click here.

The workshop aims at preparing doctoral candidates for the thesis defense by honing their presentation skills so as to effectively argue their points convincingly and think on one’s feet during the question and answers session. It provides information about the formal procedure, the requirements, the social setting of a doctorate examination and the do’s and don’ts of a doctorate examination. In this workshop video recording will be used as a tool to enable the participants to capitalize on their strengths and to improve their performance. Particular emphasis is placed on preparing strategically one’s position in the lead up to the viva defense and dealing with the questions & answers session in the second part of the viva defense.
