The Researcher Academy courses are very popular and the majority are run in both semesters to give you the opportunity to attend at a time of the year that suits you. 

Target Audience: This session is part of the Arts Researcher Skills Programme for late stage research students in the Faculty of Arts only.  

Description: This webinar will provide valuable insights in to the viva process from the perspective of a student who has recently undertaken their viva and an examiner. You will hear about their experiences and top tips and have the opportunity to ask questions.
