Information on the state exams and defences and the dresscode
Information on how the defence proceeds
Very important! The submitted thesis itself is evaluated by the opponent and by the commission, as that is the thesis which also shown to the public; the submitted thesis can not be changed after the submission. Also, not only the quality of the laboratory work is evaluated by the the file of thesis - so, the written text, the picture, figures etc. in the thesis.
Bachelor state exams and defences
- state exam - oral examination. Students draw a question (or questions) and then have 30 minutes to talk about it. It usually starts at 8 am. Immediately after the exam, it is announced if the student passed; complete results, including the grades, are usually announced afternoon (depending on the number of students) or the next day in person or by mail. In exceptional cases, you can ask for a written exam. A set of questions for the state exams is available online.
- defence - 45 minutes are reserved for one student. You need a presentation for a maximum of 12 minutes. The evaluation by the supervisor and the opponent are read after your presentation. Next, you answer the question(s) of the opponent (the answers can be included at the end of the presentation, after the "Thank you" slide). Lastly, you will answer the questions from the commission and the guests. Next, everybody except the commission members (which includes the supervisor) leaves and the commission will discuss the thesis and vote on the grade. The result is announced immediately after the defence.
Master state exams and defences
- defence is usually the first - 60 minutes reserved for one student. You need a presentation for a maximum of 15 minutes. The evaluation by the supervisor and the opponents are read after your presentation. Next, you answer the opponents' questions (the answers can be included in the presentation after the "Thank you" slide). Lastly, you will answer the questions from the commission and the guests. Next, everybody except the commission members (which includes the supervisor) leaves, and the commission will discuss the thesis and vote on the grade. The result is announced immediately after the defence.
- state exam - usually after the defence - oral, approximately 15 minutes per subject (3 subjects).
