Thesis programs

New thesis review procedures went into effect September 1, 2011

The changes in procedures involve the following:

  1. Removal of the requirement to name three possible external examiners (with final selection by GPS). The supervisor (with consultation with the student) is still responsible for choosing the external examiner; now, an academic from the unit (as determined by internal procedures) will secure the examiner. Conflict of interest policies are clarified and emphasized.
  2. Supervisors are no longer allowed to act as thesis examiners of Master’s or PhD theses.
  3. Master’s theses require a single examiner, not two.
  4. PhD theses require two examiners: internal and external examiner.

These descriptions of procedures supersede the Thesis Submission Guidelines on the website, which are in the process of being updated.
