Thesis evaluation defense is usually an evaluation competition of high-level academic journals or conferences. The evaluation of the defense requires a more detailed and in-depth review of the thesis, so as to fully explore and display the academic value and application value. Respondents not only need to have a comprehensive understanding of the content of the paper, but also need to be able to innovate and expand to a certain extent to reflect the contribution and innovation of the paper. Generally speaking, the time for defense is more than 20-30 minutes, and the professional level of the evaluation Committee will be higher, and the evaluation standards will be stricter and more comprehensive.
General thesis defense is the final defense of graduation thesis or scientific research project. In the final defense, the respondent needs to briefly introduce the research contents and conclusions to the jury, so that the jury can understand the main contributions and principles of the research. Generally speaking, the length of general defense is relatively short, generally around 10- 15 minutes, and the professional level of the jury is relatively low, and the assessment standards are also relatively loose.
Generally speaking, there are some differences between the thesis evaluation defense and the general defense in terms of mode, time, content and assessment criteria. For the respondent, it is necessary to make targeted preparations according to the requirements of defense, and pay attention to showing understanding and contribution to the research field.
