VIVA Survivor WEBINAR Online
This workshop is not suitable for 1st year PGRs.
The viva is almost the end of the PhD. A lot of work leads to this point, but often anxiety can mix with the sense of achievement at completing the thesis. For many candidates the time before the viva is filled with uncertainty about the day, uncertainty about how to prepare well - and stress for what the viva might be like.
Viva Survivor is for postgraduate researchers who want to know how to be ready for their viva. In this 3 hour webinar, you will:
- Learn realistic expectations for the PhD VIVA
- Identify key practical steps to take before submission
- Explore practical strategies for preparation and the day of the VIVA
Time will be spent exploring expectations for both in-person and video vivas and there will be plenty of time for Q&A.
