Позади 5 лет обучения в ставшем уже родным ВУЗе, sometimes difficult, and often fun and unobtrusive mastering the skills of the chosen profession, and now the last frontier looms ahead - the defense of a diploma. The speech, which you must read out at the same time, baffles both notorious lazy people and potential graduates. In fact, you should briefly but fully and profitably cover your thesis in the allotted 5-10 minutes so that the commission understands what is being said, but does not go into details that are difficult even for you. There are two opposite ways to write a speech to defend a diploma. Someone seeks to accommodate in it the “unshakeable” and tell in detail everything, even the most minor, trifles. Others, on the contrary, smooth with general phrases all the work, up to the topic, and the commission becomes incomprehensible what a person did in general. Of course, both of these approaches are extremes, which are not worth falling into.
Speech to the protection of the diploma must meet a number of very specific requirements:
- Be moderately brief.
- Reflect the topic of work, purpose, objectives, relevance, basic methods of its implementation and results.
- If there is a practical application of your work, this should also be reflected in the report.
In addition, it is important to adhere to a specific scheme and take into account the time frame. Speech to the defense of the diploma has the following approximate structure:
- Appeal to members of the commission (“Dear memberscommission, let me bring to your attention the graduate work of the student name on "...". Supervisor - regalia, full name. The work was carried out at the department ..., on the basis of .... Supported by…".).
- Relevance of the topic - 3-5 proposals, reflecting the current state of research on your topic and their practical significance.
- Purpose, tasks, subject and object, methods (briefly) of performance of work.
- The main results of the work (“As a resultthe research carried out was established ... what you see on the graph / scheme / figure / in the table ... "). For clarity, this part of the report is recommended to use handouts or presentations on a multimedia projector.
- Findings reflecting the objectives of the study andcorresponding to the results obtained. Depending on their volume and remaining time, a trick can be applied: “The conclusions were made during the report, so allow them not to be read out”. As a rule, there is no objection.
- Approbation of the work (“The results of the work were tested at the scientific and practical conferences“ ... ”, there are also acts of implementing the results of work in the production“ ... ”).
- At the end of the report, thanks are due to various organizations and people who have helped you in preparing your work.
- The final word ("I have everything, thank you for your attention. I am listening to your questions!").
Speech for the protection of the diploma has also certaintime frames, which may vary depending on the specific university, but, as a rule, are 8-10 minutes. The best way to break up the report by time is as follows:
- Greeting, relevance of the topic, goals, objects and methods should take up to 3 minutes.
- To discuss the results with visual aids is given up to 5 minutes of time.
- Conclusions, approbation, thanks and closing remarks - 2 minutes.
Total, regulated 10 minutes.As practice shows, in order to meet the specified time frame, it is necessary to rehearse the report at home 1-2 times at least. Despite the fact that many experts recommend rehearsing in front of a mirror, it is more effective to attract friends and relatives as an audience - this will help you to worry less about the commission.
The preparation of the report should be treated as much as possible.responsibly, not only composing the text (4-6 A4 pages), but also practicing tempo, voice, intonation (maximum confidence, no hesitation and words-parasites. Average speech rate, moderate gestures will create a pleasant impression on the audience), because the speech The diploma is often even more important than the diploma itself - as a rule, no one reads the work, and your success depends on its presentation.
