Thesis Proposal and Defense Paperwork

When you plan to propose

Thesis Proposal Checklist (PDF)
PhDs who plan to propose theses should use this short form to make sure that they've completed the required administrative tasks.

When you plan to defend

Thesis Defense Checklist (PDF)
PhDs who plan to defend theses should use this form to make sure that they've completed the required administrative tasks especially communicating their desires for refreshments in a timely manner.

Thesis Defense Menu Confirmation (PDF)
This is a form (also in Excel) designed to help students plan and communicate their desired refreshments for Thesis Defenses.

Also on our radar is to develop a few Thesis Defense Menu options for students who may not have the time or the desire to plan the refreshments for their Theses Defenses.

Scheduling thesis proposals and defenses

PhD students need to give 4 weeks notice for scheduling their thesis proposals and defenses and that there cannot be more than one of these events on any given day.

The calendar below, which is being maintained by Lauren Clarke, can be used to check if a particular date is available.
