Your Viva-Voce is Coming Soon? – Some Tips

This morning I attended a mock viva session of one of my PhD students whom I co-supervise with Dr Mahadi Bahari. While listening to the presentation, these things came into my mind…

Each PhD student has a very different, very unique journey. Do not compare your journey with your fellow PhD researchers! NEVER!

These are some general tips that I would like to share:

  1. When the viva session comes, DO IT ALL OUT, DO IT THE BEST THAT YOU CAN. ENJOY IT because you have spent 3-5 (or more) years of your LIFE for it!
  2. Normally you are given time about 20 – 30 minutes for the presentation. Make the slides informative and attractive. Highlight the points, PLEASE!!! Do not full your slides with texts! Sell your idea, your contributions.
  3. During the day, make sure you and your supervisor bring the hard copy  of your thesis.
  4. Print slides for the panels, your supervisor and for yourself.
  5. Bring a notebook (paper) and pen to jot down the examiners comments.
  6. Yes, you should defend your thesis but do not be too defensive.

All the best!
