Take your research to the next level

No matter what you go on to do, your ability to speak confidently and fluently about your ideas will serve you for the rest of your life. Yet, being able to contextualise your research at a level that everyone understands is a skill in of itself, as Enya and Douglas share in their experience of Parliament:

鈥淧resenting in our department was very technical, critical and focused. To come here and speak to a range of people from outside of 香港六合彩中特网 with different backgrounds and knowledge helped us develop the way we explain our research to a diverse audience to find an angle that they will understand.鈥�

A key to effective presentation is more than just how to shape your research in advance, however: it鈥檚 about how you adapt it in the very moment of delivery. For Zane, that was the best part of presenting at Parliament.听
鈥淐ondensing scientifically detailed information into something that everyone can benefit from is not as easy as it might seem,鈥� she recounts, 鈥淚n fact, I feel that an ability to modify my presentation on the spot based on the particular listener is my most important takeaway from this great experience.鈥�

Being featured in Posters in Cloisters or Posters in Parliament gives you that room to grow as a great communicator 鈥� yet, it can also provide whole new opportunities you might not even be thinking about right now.

Open doors: life beyond research, through research

鈥淚t was an almost surreal experience.鈥�

When Amanda Campbell went to Parliament two years ago to share her research on a biodegradable tent for music festivals, she didn鈥檛 expect to win first prize in a national competition a year after graduating from 香港六合彩中特网.

鈥淭here is a huge sense of achievement going over previous work and portraying it on a poster. It takes work out of just the academic sphere and into the real world, where arguably it is more inspiring and engaging. It also gives students an experience of where research can take them, demonstrating that all their hard work doesn鈥檛 have to end when their course does.鈥�

You never know where the next opportunity is going to come from. Research opens doors, and while you鈥檙e at 香港六合彩中特网, you鈥檙e in the perfect place to conduct and broadcast world-class research.
