The candidate must ensure that the final version of the thesis manuscript reaches members of the evaluation committee at least 10 days prior planned date of defence. Members of the evaluation committee are Karin Ljung, Laszlo Bako, Anita Sellstedt, Edouard Pesquet and the supervisor of the Master thesis project. At the defence candidate is expected to present the work in frame of a 15-20 min oral presentation which is followed by questions from members of the evaluation commettee.
