Preparing for your Viva

Join us to learn how to prepare for your viva, understand the types of questions you might be asked and where to get the details for examination logistics at the University of Warwick.

The session will also provide you with the opportunity to share your concerns, ask questions and practise answering potential viva questions.

What assumptions are you making about your career choices? Do you think that you are only eligible to follow a particular route because of the Research Degree that you have done? Do you think that employers outside of academia will make assumptions about your abilities and skill set? Do you think those assumptions will be correct?

Understanding what limiting factors we may be placing on ourselves and on others will allow us to unlock more potential in ourselves and the future range of our potential employers.

But more, we need to recognise all of what we have achieved during our research degree and how every aspect of it can be valuable to different employers.

A timely reflective workshop best fitted to those PGRs in the last stages of their degree.
