Thesis Viva & Research Defence Preparation Course

Turn a completed thesis into a clear research story and practise concise, evidence-based answers about choices, findings, contribution and limits.

Who this is for

A practical self-study system for researchers.

BS, MS, MPhil and PhD researchers preparing for proposal defence, thesis viva, oral examination or research presentation.

The PDF course is written in English and designed for independent, self-paced study. It explains each decision, provides fictional illustrations, and includes workbook pages that you can print or complete separately against your own research.

The purchase does not include private document review, editing, data analysis, or live sessions. Those are available through the live group fee or a separately quoted one-to-one or institutional format.
