My Thesis

• The thesis examination workflow cannot progress without examiner details.
• The Primary Advisor needs to complete the Nomination of Examiners form for GRS to send candidate thesis to the Examiners.
• The thesis examination process will be placed on hold until examiner information has been provided.

• No. Students receive examiner reports before the oral.
• Examiner feedback is discussed during the oral examination.
• Revisions are completed after the oral process if still required.

• The advisory panel does not participate in the oral examination.
• Advisors may be invited as observers, but they do not take part in the assessment discussions.

• The thesis first goes to the Primary Advisor for review.
• Once approved, GRS manages examiner engagement.
• Examiners formally have six weeks to review.
• Extensions are common.
• Students should allow approximately 8-10 weeks for examiner reports.
• Students should generally not follow up before the 10-week mark because GRS is usually waiting on examiners.
