What is the Viva Voce as a defence?
Show answer
The Viva Voce gives you the chance to present the major concepts, scope, emphases and form of your proposed work, and to explain how the project draws on the knowledge, understanding and skills of your Advanced and Extension courses. The allocation is roughly fifteen to twenty minutes, often with preparation time on supplied questions beforehand. It is a defence in the academic sense: you are not reciting the proposal, you are answering for it.
