The viva can be a daunting experience for which you need to be well-prepared. This workshop will de-mystify the viva process and requirements, and provide you with useful guidance on preparing for the big day. You'll also hear examples of real questions and experiences from recent successful vivas across different Schools, and benefit from the opportunity to participate in a mock viva.

By the end of the workshop you will:

• Understand the viva process and possible outcomes
• Have received practical guidance on familiarising yourself with your thesis and preparing for potential questions
• Have gained useful insights on what to expect and how to get ready for your viva
