Target Audience: PGRs
This engaging and supportive workshop equips researchers with the skills and confidence to deliver an impactful Three-Minute Thesis presentation.
Participants explore audience-focused communication and learn how to communicate complex research clearly, concisely and effectively. Through practical individual, pair and group activities, they develop presentation skills and explore principles for structuring and designing an effective research presentation.
The workshop also focuses on stage presence, audience engagement and managing nerves, helping participants become more confident and authentic presenters. Constructive peer feedback provides opportunities to practise, reflect and refine their delivery in a safe and encouraging environment.
Although centred on the Three-Minute Thesis format, the skills developed are highly transferable, supporting researchers to communicate their work effectively across presentations, conferences, networking and other professional settings.
By the end of the workshop participants will:
- Communicate complex research clearly, concisely and effectively for different audiences.
- Structure and design an engaging Three-Minute Thesis presentation.
- Develop confident stage presence and techniques for managing nerves.
- Practise presentation skills and use constructive peer feedback to refine delivery.
