Submission of Masters Thesis
Masters thesis and research portfolio submission changes as of 1 May
2013
Students whose due date for submission of their masters thesis or research
portfolio is 1 May 2013 should be aware that the submission process has changed.
Students will need to submit three
temporary-bound copies of
their work and a digital
copy to their faculty
student centre. Students granted a short extension until 15 July will
also follow this process.
Faculty student centres will manage the examination process for masters thesis
and research portfolios.
Students will be sent the substantive comments that their examiners have made,
and thesis candidates will be able to make minor corrections to their work
before having their thesis hard-bound and deposited in the University library.
All questions regarding this new process should be made at your faculty student
centre.
