990023 PEP WORKSHOP Thesis defence training (WS) (SoSe 2025)

Contents, comment

Contents

The last big milestone in a PhD is the oral defence of the dissertation, which brings particular challenges in communication. This workshop is aimed at doctorial candidates, who want to engage in intensive preparation for their disputation. Based on the individual experiences of the participants, presentation techniques and five defence strategies are discussed in the workshop. The PhD candidates actively implement these strategies in the most important part of the workshop - the disputation simulations. Each candidate will present his/her research in five minutes and answer questions by their colleagues. If required, managing stage fright and nervousness can also be addressed.
