Assessment

Oral defence

A pre-constituted jury (the supervisors are part of it) assesses only the oral defense of the master's thesis during the jury session. In consultation with the members of the jury, the chairman of the jury fills out an assessment form and assigns a score on 20 for this part .   

Process and methodology + thesis

The supervisory team assesses the thesis, the progress (the process including a possible internship) and the methodology. They will receive an evaluation form in advance and assign a score on 20 for this part.

Communication and language skills

The lecturer of the master's thesis seminar assesses the student's (written) communication skills (e.g. research design, abstract, academic poster) by means of  continuous assessment.
