Information on submitting your master's thesis and deadlines
One bound copy of the thesis must be submitted to the Study Support Centre (SSC). If you wish to submit additional copies to the chair and/or supervisor, please clarify this with them.
For legal reasons, the bound version must be available for grading and must be identical to the electronic version. Your supervisor has 5 weeks to grade the thesis. The grading and plagiarism check must be completed 3 weeks before the exam date.
If you want to ensure that you can attend a specific defence date, we recommend that you submit your thesis 8 weeks before the date (in bound and electronic form). If you submit your thesis later, you may only be able to attend a later date. If you submit your thesis on the final deadline (3 weeks before the date), your supervisor will have to read the thesis, check it for plagiarism, grade it and enter it as completed in MUonline on the same day, which is rather unrealistic.
