The University of Newcastle's Graduate Research team delivers a range of training workshops and social activities, designed to help HDR students develop their skills, make supportive connections and feel part of a rich, vibrant research community.

As a researcher – both in your studies and career – you’ll be called upon to present your research in a variety of contexts, and to a variety of audiences. Presenting is a critical skill that opens doors in both industry and academia, yet many of us are still terrified at the prospect of adapting our work to the spoken word and presenting on stage.This all-day master class, presented by Dr Brigid Clancy (Graduate Research), Hugh Milligan (Graduate Research) and Emma Kerr (UON Counselling Service), will span the whole process of adapting, preparing and delivering a brilliant research presentation.Throughout the day, they'll cover:<ul><li>Stage fright What is glossophobia, and how does it work? How can we work with our anxiety, or even use it to our advantage?</li></ul><ul><li>Context Different scenarios where you may be required to present your research (such as confirmation, festivals and research conferences).</li></ul><ul><li>Structure How your research can be organised to meet the needs of its intended audience.</li></ul><ul><li>Delivery Mental and physical techniques that will enhance the impact of your presentation.</li></ul><ul><li>Preparation Tips, tricks and mnemonic devices that will allow you to prepare and recall information.</li></ul>The day will include breaks with tea, coffee and snacks, and will conclude with an (optional) open section where anyone who would like to practice and get feedback on their presentation is welcome to do so.Whether you’re a novice presenter looking to get started, someone with stage fright who’d like to build confidence, or an experienced presenter who’d like to hone your skills even further, this master class is a rare opportunity that shouldn’t be missed.
