Here& #39;s what you need to know.
1. Understand what you are doing
You have to understand and love your thesis. It will help you a lot. You don& #39;t have to act or be nervous. You can be spontaneous and natural that way, it& #39;ll boost your confidence level during presentation too.

2. Be confident
Make sure your voice is loud and hearable. Stand straight and firm. Look at your evaluator in the eye. It gives a good image that you are well prepared for your presentation.

3. Correlation
The method you propose must help you to fulfill your aim, objective and provide desired data. Be efficient. Don& #39;t add unnecessary stuff or step.

4. Elaborate and justify
You have to explain why do you propose such experiment. For example:
i. You use autoclave at 121 degree celcius. Why? Such temperature can kill even the most heat durable food pathogen like clostridium botulinum

ii. You keep meat in 3 degree celcius or colder. Why? It is important since it can prevent lipid oxidation in meat which can degrade the quality of the meat.
Yes, the point here is you need to be able to explain the reason you take each step during the presentation.

5. "Excuse me, what is it again?"
If you cannot catch up what your evaluator is asking, it is ok to ask back to reconfirm. It can buy you some time to think and avoid you from giving the wrong ans since you might hear the question wrong at the first time.

6. The epitome of knowing is not knowing.
It is understandable if you are unable to ans your evaluator& #39;s question. You are a student, you& #39;re still learning. You are not Mr-Know All. If you already read as much as you can and did everything you could and it is beyond

your power and comprehension, take a deep breath and say that you& #39;re sorry and you will read more afterwards regarding the topic and will try to improve more.
7. Smile!
Always smile during your presentation. It gives good vibe and aura. It shows that you are confident and know what you are talking about.

8. Do some research about who you are dealing with
You can find your lecturer& #39;s CV in your university staff& #39;s directory. This is like stalking your evaluator firsthand

9. THANK YOU!
Don& #39;t forget to say thank you to your evaluator. Voice out what do you hope to achieve with your research/project. Say sorry if there are any mistakes during your presentation.

That& #39;s all I guess I can say as far as I can remember. All the best! This is a good chance to develop your presentation skill. It will come in handy when you are working in the industry or pursuing your Master& #39;s Degree and PhD.
Be proud of your research! It shows how much you learn and understand since the first day of your degree. It is also your first step to become an academician. There& #39;s no meaning in degree certificate if you do not go through this. May Allah ease...all the best ok?
