Description
This one day workshop provides you with essential tools and input that will guide you in your preparation for the doctoral defense. We will address all issues pertaining to the doctoral defense.

Topics:

• What are the aims of the doctoral defense?
  
• How to efficiently and strategically prepare for the defense
• How to design an interesting and fascinating research narrative
• How to anticipate and deal with (killer) questions
• How to deal with exam anxiety and stage fright

The workshop puts theory into practice, but only one participant can do a full mock defenses. Prior to the workshop all participants will receive a questionnaire. If you are interested in doing the mock defense, you're required to send in a short abstract (later to be distributed to all participants).

* Creditability within the kick-off seminar

For reasons of respect and fairness towards all participants and the workshop leaders, participants who miss more than 10% of the workshop are considered not to be present. You will therefore not receive a certificate and you will not be able to use the workshop in question to unlock funds or acquire further qualifications.

Before you register, please confirm with your supervisor/ employer that you are free to participate in the course on that date.
