Enter your thesis title and key findings — AI generates a 12-15 slide presentation outline with content, speaker notes, and time allocation for your viva/defense.
A thesis defense presentation typically runs 20-30 minutes followed by 30-60 minutes of Q&A. The biggest mistake candidates make is trying to present their ENTIRE thesis. Instead, focus on the story: what was the problem, what did you do, what did you find, and why does it matter.
The results/findings section should get the most time (30-40% of your presentation). This is what your examiners are most interested in. Literature review should be brief (1-2 slides maximum) — your examiners have already read your thesis.
Our tool generates a presentation-ready outline with the right proportion of time for each section, specific content suggestions for your topic, and speaker notes to help you practice.
✓ Keep slides visual — figures, charts, diagrams
✓ Practice to stay within time (record yourself)
✓ Anticipate questions for each slide
✓ Start with the problem, not the methodology
✓ End with your contribution — what's new
✗ Don't read from slides — they already read your thesis
✗ Don't exceed time — shows poor planning
✗ Don't put walls of text on slides
✗ Don't skip limitations — examiners WILL ask
✗ Don't apologize — present with confidence
12-15 slides for a 20-25 minute presentation. Rule of thumb: 1.5-2 minutes per slide. More than 20 slides means you're trying to cover too much.
No. Include your KEY findings — the 3-4 most important results that support your thesis argument. Leave minor findings for the Q&A if asked. Quality over quantity.
1-2 slides maximum (2-3 minutes). Your examiners have already read your thesis. A brief summary of the key gap you identified is sufficient.
Typically 30-60 minutes. Use our Viva Question Predictor to anticipate likely questions. Prepare backup slides for common deep-dive questions.
