This step is the final step in a long process. Make sure everything goes smoothly and check all technical equipment (e.g., projector) before your presentation.

For a BSc thesis, the presentation should last 15 minutes (+15 minutes for questions) and for an MSc thesis, the presentation should last 30 minutes (+25 minutes for questions).

Important: The new Webex licence for students only allows meetings up to 40 minutes. If you use Webex for your presentation, ask your advisor to set up a meeting for you.

Slides should accompany your defense. They should include the motivation/context, the problem addressed, the approach, the methods used, the main results and your insights. If you developed a prototype as part of your thesis, be sure to include a demo.

Be prepared to answer detailed questions by the examiners.
