Insider Guide to the Doctoral Viva
13 December 2017 @ 13:00 - 15:00
Themes covered in this session:
- Processes – what happens between thesis hand-in and the viva?
- How examiners examine a doctoral thesis
- How to prepare for my doctoral viva
- What will happen on viva day?
- What will happen after the viva?
The event is designed to supplement mock viva support that you receive from your supervisors. It is intended to provide an opportunity for you to liaise with colleagues from a range of SHU disciplinary areas with considerable experience of being involved in doctoral examinations. This will facilitate sharing of knowledge and tips.
An informal, discursive tone is intended so please try to come along and take this opportunity to deepen your understanding of the research degree viva and shape your expectations.
Doctoral researchers at all stages of research are welcome!
