This session held by Professor Wolfgang Sofka will provide you with a practical guide for designing scientific presentations.
We will explore the specifics of the audience and the occasions, and you will learn to set priorities and condense messages.
The emphasis of this session is on applicable solutions, so you should already think about a particular project within your PhD which can serve as a training ground.
After the session, please join the PhD Christmas Lunch for postgraduate research students and supervisors at the Management School's Seminar Room 2 😊
This is a great opportunity if you are a postgraduate research student at any stage of your PhD. We are looking forward to see you there!
How Academia 101 supports your development as a researcher
These sessions have been built around the Vitae Researcher Development Framework (RDF), the national professional development framework for planning, promoting and supporting the personal, professional and career development of researchers.
The Vitae RDF is structured into 4 domains to capture the knowledge, behaviours, and attributes identified as significant for researchers across a wide range of stakeholders:
- Domain A: Knowledge and intellectual abilities: The knowledge, intellectual abilities and techniques to do research
- Domain B: Personal effectiveness: The personal qualities and approach to be an effective researcher
- Domain C: Research governance and organisation:
Knowledge of the professional standards and requirements to do research - Domain D: Engagement, influence and impact: The knowledge and skills to work with others to ensure the wider impact of research
- Each of the Academia 101 sessions is explicitly linked to at least one of the Vitae RDF domains, sub-domains and descriptors, to help you track your progress and development within these specific areas.
This also allows you to select sessions that are particularly relevant to your personal research development.
