BENJ1001 Jatko-opiskelijan seminaari (1 op)

Doctoral students should give a talk on their own PhD project no later than within 2 weeks after the dissertation has been sent to preliminary examiners. A doctoral student first contacts a seminar organiser in her/his division and set the date with the professor of her/his major. No later than one week before the presentation date, a doctoral student should submit the title and the abstract to a seminar organiser.

The length of the talk is 30–40 minutes with 15 min for discussion. The talk should include a broad theoretical background, description of the methods, a summary of results and conclusions. The talk should not consist of separate presentations of the articles in the dissertation but instead the experiments should be synthesized, forming a coherent entity. Due to the limited time allocated for the talk, it is not necessary to include all results in the presentation.

It is highly recommended that the doctoral student rehearses her/his talk under a guidance of her/his supervisor(s) prior to the seminar date.
