Against All Odds: Miriam Faces Her Final-Year Project Defence

They spend days reviewing their research, testing each other with difficult questions, and building the confidence to defend their work before the lecturers. On the morning of the defence, tension fills the department as final-year students wait to be called in. Miriam draws strength from their preparation, presents her project, and answers questions on her topic, methodology, findings, and recommendations. When both friends successfully complete their defences, they join their coursemates for a small celebration. With clearance and project defence behind them, Miriam reflects on how close they are to saying goodbye to the university that has been their second home.
