Thesis preparation

It's important that you carefully read the instructions regarding thesis preparation.

 

External/Internal Examiners

MSc:  your supervisor should confirm an external examiner who has not been on your review committee. You should only enter that one proposed examiner on myThesis.

PhD:  Your supervisor should confirm an internal examiner.  Bear in mind that if the internal examiner has been on your review committee, the second internal member of the defense committee needs to be a professor who has not been.  You should only enter that one internal examiner on myThesis. For proposed external examiners: Please list three potential external examiners on myThesis. This process sometimes takes time, do not leave to the last minute.
