How much does a thesis defence presentation cost?

In the Polish price list, slides start at PLN 10 each and the minimum presentation price is PLN 60. Ten slides therefore have a base price from PLN 100. A thesis defence presentation is priced individually, however: placing finished content on slides differs from developing charts, a narrative and speaking materials.

What are you paying for in a defence presentation?

The basic per-slide rate covers a clear layout. Summarising the thesis, selecting results, redrawing charts, creating diagrams or planning the talk requires a separate agreement.

Slides should show the aim, method, main results and conclusions rather than copied chapters. Match the slide count to the time allowed by your university and your supervisor's advice.

How can I compare presentation quotes?

Check whether the quote covers slide design from finished material only, or also content selection, charts and notes. Two 10-slide presentations can involve very different amounts of work.

Attach the thesis file, required format, deadline and any university template. This helps us confirm both the price and whether the material can be ready before your defence.

How should you read a starting price?

A 'from' rate describes the simplest agreed scope. It does not mean every page or file takes the same effort. The same length may be a clear finished draft or a document with missing data, inconsistent references and supervisor comments.

When comparing quotes, ask what will be checked or prepared, how many rounds of changes are included and what needs separate approval. A price without a description of the deliverable does not make two services comparable.

What affects scope and timing?

Start with the condition of the source material and current university requirements. A short document with many tables, sources or substantive changes may need more work than a longer, well-prepared text. Page count is only one pricing factor.

Set the order of tasks: which changes must happen before the next stage, what files or decisions are still missing and when the result can be reviewed. Timing also depends on the availability of those materials.

How can you assess the finished work?

Compare the finished file with the agreed scope, not just the number of edits. Check whether the document's structure, citations, tables and important comments remain intact. An order for one element is not automatically a full audit of the thesis.

Before submission, open both the editable version and the final PDF. Update the contents page and cross-references, then review passages affected by changes. Check compliance with university rules on the file you will actually submit.

How should you order the tasks?

Work backwards from the final deadline and list earlier decisions on which later tasks depend: topic approval, access to data, supervisor comments, editing and file submission. Mark what you can do independently and where you must wait for someone else.

Give each stage a verifiable result, such as an approved outline, complete dataset or final PDF. A task labelled only 'work on the chapter' hides progress; a small concrete deliverable makes the schedule easier to adjust.

What if comments or delays appear?

Group comments into content, method and technical issues. Resolve those that may change the aim or results first; fixing punctuation before rewriting a whole section wastes effort. Keep the original file and the comment history.

If you need another person's decision, send one concise question with possible options and identify the relevant passage. Meanwhile, work on a part that does not depend on the answer. Silence is not approval.

How do you finish without rushing?

Check the content and the file separately. For content, compare the aim with the conclusions, sources with citations, and tables with their discussion. For the file, check the contents page, numbering, filenames and final PDF appearance.

Reserve time for an unexpected correction, especially where the university requires approval in a submission system. Send the version you actually read after export and retain proof of submission under your department's procedure.

How do you test whether the schedule is realistic?

Allow separate time for drafting, supervisor feedback, revisions and the technical submission. If several stages depend on one decision, do not schedule them as parallel tasks. Set a review point at which you can narrow the scope without losing the answer to the main question.

Keep one current file and label older versions clearly. With each revision, note what was changed and what still needs a decision. Near the deadline, this list helps you address material errors instead of rereading the entire correspondence.

Summary

For a rough estimate, use PLN 10 per slide and a PLN 60 minimum. For a defence, send the finished thesis or abstract, the allotted speaking time and your supervisor's comments so we can distinguish content work from slide design.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a 10-slide presentation cost?

The indicative price for slides alone is 10 × PLN 10, or PLN 100. A defence presentation may cost differently after we review the materials and the content work needed.

Are speaker notes included in the slide price?

They are a separate price-list item, starting at PLN 49. Mention that you need notes when asking about the presentation.

What should I send for a presentation quote?

Send the topic and current thesis, university requirements, expected speaking time, slide count, and whether you already have charts and final conclusions.

Need support with your work?

Describe the topic, scope and deadline. We will review the materials, recommend the right support and prepare a clear quote.
