INTENTION TO SUBMIT: When you intend to submit you thesis, register your intention to submit your complete thesis via Webropol-survey. The registration is important since you can register to the Oral Presentation at the same time. That way we will get an idea of how many students intend to submit their thesis at a specific deadline so that we can organize relevant processes. LES (Learning Services) also needs time to check your Personal Study Plan before you apply for graduation. For instance, if you plan to submit your thesis on the 31st of October 2023, please register your intention by the 25th of September 2023.

ORAL PRESENTATION: The presentation is a mandatory part of the thesis process, and it must be done before submitting the complete Thesis. You can conduct the presentation by participating to the public presentation event (Oral Presentation) or on a more informal setting with your supervisor. In the Oral Presentation you will have the opportunity to gain valuable feedback which you can work with before the final submission deadline. The presentation times in the table above are for the Oral Presentation. Contact you supervisor in time if you intend to conduct the presentation on a more informal setting. 

SUBMITTING THESIS FOR EXAMINATION (permission to publish): The supervisor gives permission for examination when they have familiarized themselves with the work and knows that the thesis meets the requirements given and that the oral presentation is done. If the supervisor does not give permission for examination, the student must make the necessary changes before submitting the work for examination. Permission for examination can also be given conditionally, i.e. after making the necessary changes, the student can submit the completed work. If the changes have not been made to the completed Thesis, it may affect the grading or the examination process may be delayed.

When applying for an examination permit, public holidays must be taken into account. If the date is not specified in the above table, it is recommended to agree it well in advance with the supervisor.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: These are the deadlines to submit your completed thesis for the academic year 2023-2024. The submission date is also your graduation date if all other studies have been completed and you apply for graduation at the same time as you submit your thesis. The thesis is submitted in the eAge system (please see "Submitting the thesis for evaluation and electronical archiving" above).

Further details can be found in the Thesis Guide below.
