Beyond the data: Presenting Science with Impact (Scientific Presentation)
2-day on-site workshop on November 4+5, 2025 on KIT Campus South
As a scientist, presenting your findings is essential, whether in a group seminar, at a conference, or during your Ph.D. defense. However, effective science presentation is more than just sharing data.
The topics covered by this workshop are:
- Planning and structure
- Memorable start and ending
- Speech, voice, and body language
- Create meaningful graphics
- Slide composition
- Difficult situations
The training is a workshop, meaning that the participants apply the learned material to their presentations right there. Therefore, everybody should bring presentations (old or upcoming ones) to work with.
Speaking the same language is a great advantage for tailoring presentations effectively. Another important point: Most scientists talk about their topic with shining eyes. Often, that excitement is gone the moment they stand in front of a crowd. To tap into this enthusiasm during your talk is particularly important. For that enthusiasm to reappear, you need to feel safe with what you are doing in your presentation.
