Dissertation day –actual<br />
‘defense’<br />
• Starts with the Opponent’s speech on the significance of the<br />
studied topics<br />
• Continues with questions regarding your thesis, your research<br />
area and related issues to the research topic (typically about 2-3 h;<br />
in my case 3h30’ all together)<br />
• Ends with the Opponent(s)’ statement regarding your thesis (at<br />
TUT, 3 recommendations are possible: ‘passed’, ‘passed with<br />
honors’ or ‘failed’). The Faculty Council decides the final ‘grade’,<br />
based on the Opponents’ recommendation.
