I remember the excitement I felt when I handed it three copies of my PhD thesis. I felt proud and relieved. But then I remembered that I still have to pass my viva examination to get my doctorate. I was anxious.

I started my preparations immediately and set myself a clear goal – I wanted to prove to myself that I can pass my viva without corrections. And you know what? I did it! You may wonder how did I do this? The answer is simple – the key is in both understanding the process and being well prepared. I went through a thorough preparation process that helped me know my thesis and the broader research area inside-out.

I understand that you may feel anxious or worried about your viva exam too. And you know what? It’s completely normal! I was there myself! Now that I’ve been supervising and examining PhD theses in the UK and Italy, I want to share my reflections as an academic and examiner to give back and help you pass your viva with flying colours!

In the webinar “How to prepare for a PhD viva”, I’m going to share the tools and frameworks I’ve used to prepare for my PhD. I’ll supplement these tools with my expertise and reflections as a PhD examiner to help you understand what the requirements are to pass PhD viva, what the examiners are looking for and how you can enjoy the discussion!

Let’s get started!
