While most graduate students have developed a strong foundation in writing papers, another skill of equal importance for disseminating research findings is giving conference presentations. This workshop provides you with key strategies to successfully prepare and present your research at a conference. The workshop will cover several important considerations for presenting at conferences, including preparing slides, reducing your dependency on written prompts, discovering your natural presentation style, tips for engaging your audience and writing in a conversational manner, and advice for handling the question and answer session after the presentation.
