During your PhD you will have many opportunities to discuss and present your research to different audiences and in a variety of contexts.
You already know how to express your ideas and discuss them with your Supervisor, your peers and other members of your department or group. However, you should continue to develop this key academic skill during your doctorate and there are a range of opportunities available in the university to support you to do this:
