Hi Ady,

Thank you very much for your reply - it's very helpful :)

The main problem I seem to be having is - I have not yet fully completed my Masters research (i.e. the project proposal has just been submitted, and the actual lab work will begin next month) which of course means I do not actually have any results to present.

Should this make a difference to the approach you have suggested? Or should I take on board your suggestions despite not having results yet?

EDIT: Oh and yes they have told me to make it 10-15 minutes long.

Thanks again!

Stephen

Hi Everyone,

I am currently doing a Masters, and I have an upcoming PhD interview.
They (the PhD interviewers) have asked that I prepare and present to them my Masters research.

My Masters is in a branch of Toxicology, and the PhD is in another branch of Toxicology.
The problem I seem to be having is - how do I go about preparing the presentation?
I am not sure what to include in it, what to not include, and what should I generally put in the presentation?

They have simply said that they want me to "present your Masters research to us".

I spoke with my current Supervisor and they have advised me that I should incorporate stuff that they want to hear - such as my experience with parts of the PhD field etc.

What do you think? Could you please point me in the right direction? As I am slightly lost/overwhelmed by the pressure of this at the moment.

Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon!

Stephen
