Best Practices Before the proposal
Practice your presentation with your research group (include having them ask questions and giving feedback)
Practice answering questions you DON’T know the answer to. This is a professional discussion that sometimes gets off-topic.
Ask your advisor if friends/lab mates can or should attend. Even if they are advised not to attend your proposal, you should invite them to your defense!

During the Proposal
Students should plan on presenting 20-30 mins. MAX and answering questions throughout. This usually makes the presentation take 45 mins - 1 hr. You should schedule 2 hours, if possible, for the proposal. If the committee is only available for 1 hour, be brief.

After the proposal
You should seek writing support and guidance - See Graduate Writing Resources page.
Need help with the big picture and how to organize your work? – Grad. Research Engineering Writing Center (GREW)
Need help with grammar and general writing? - E-Tutoring Writing Center
Use Grammarly - this is an actual requirement to have your final manuscript approved!
Begin using the Thesis Office’s template and submit your Preliminary Pages – Chapter 3 or 4 for preliminary review to the Thesis Office to begin formatting review (formatting issues are the biggest slowdown and cause for delayed graduation after the defense, so start now!) – More information on what is included in these initial chapters can be found on the Graduate Writing Resources page.<br>
03
How to Answer Questions Listen to the whole question. Do not half-listen while forming your answer.

Rephrase the question.
Makes sure you heard question correctly.
Makes sure you understand the question.
Gives you opportunity to reframe the question.

Answer question honestly. If you aren’t sure, make sure when you are speculating and explain why you think that.

End answer on a positive note – toward the contribution of your work and it’s importance.<br>
