Hello,
I'm planning a session on surviving the PhD Viva for students here at UCA, and am looking to give students various scenarios to discuss with the aim of coming up with solutions and ways to prepare for the exam. I've managed to think of 3 examples (e.g. the student who didn't keep up with his research between submitting and the viva and thus couldn't relate an important finding etc) and am looking for other stories to turn into scenarios for group discussion.
If anyone has any viva stories they have heard, or anecdotes that can be turned into stories I'd be very grateful.
Please do email me and once I've got a hefty pile together I can send out to all if people are interested in this task.
Thank you,
Dr. Laura Christie
