Be familiar and interested in your project work

So many potential defense students make the mistake of writing on a topic they have no particular interest in, either they are forced by their supervisors or colleagues to write on such project topic or they craft their topic based on pre-written topics on the net but not withstanding where the work is crafted from, familiarization with the work should be inevitable.

Know your audience

Well getting a heads up about who will be amongst the defense team is actually a credit to you as it will help prepare your mindset on what to expect and reactions to expect while you’re addressing the panel.

Checkup possible questions

Inasmuch as you don’t expect the lecturers to follow a trend of questions it is still pertinent that you check up possible questions that may be asked during your defense and try to answer them I the best possible ways.

It will be a gross disappointment that a question will be asked and u are so unprepared to tackle it in your capacity.

Practice and practice more

Many students make the mistake of leaving the bulk of their work until the eleventh hour before rushing over it to meet up the standard preparation level.

Practice as it is usually said makes one perfect but I will say practice and practicing more will boost your confidence level and help you get more comfortable doing what you’re meant to do.

Work with time

As you prepare for your project defense it is of sole importance that you work with time so you don’t get caught unawares.

During your practice hours, keep a stopwatch or an alarm clock handy to keep yourself in check with the actual minutes you will be given during the[b] project defens[/b]e and be sure to use the limited time to answer most of the relevant questions as much as possible and be straight to the point with the answers you give.

Work on your nerves

You are definitely expected to be bold as much as you can be but being nervous before the big even is quite inevitable and should be expected.

At this point it is up to you to work on yourself and tune your mindset to face the challenge head on. Looking bold and confident during the defense is a credit to you so you need to keep the nerves in check

Dressing Code

First impression I everything in life and it matters what impression you give out first before you start speaking your look says more to your audience. Make sure you wear clothes appropriate for the event, well washed and ironed it doesn’t have to be expensive but it has to be presentable and appealing, good personal hygiene is inexcusable here.
