Pre-defense is to defend in the thesis group, show your graduation thesis and PPT to the tutor and the students in the group to judge whether there are any loopholes, and then the tutor will give relevant suggestions and initially put forward some defense questions to prepare for the formal defense.
The difference between pre-defense and formal defense:
1, the time of reply is different.
Pre-defense refers to the defense before the formal defense, which is usually carried out a few months before the formal defense, and the formal defense is generally carried out when the graduate students are nearing graduation.
2. The defensive difficulty is different.
Pre-defense is relatively simple. My tutor will not ask particularly deep questions, but the formal defense will be more strict and standardized. The teacher will check whether it meets the graduation standards and ask difficult questions.
3. The members of the defense team are different.
The members of the pre-defense group are not as demanding as the formal defense, and most colleges and universities are composed of teachers from professional research groups. In the formal defense, the instructor of his thesis generally does not appear in the defense group.
4. The main purpose of defense is different.
The purpose of pre-defense is to review the graduation thesis again, so that students can experience the process of defense, and the purpose is to find mistakes and improve deficiencies. Formal defense is the condition to test whether graduate students have graduated, and it is the key factor to decide whether graduate students can graduate formally.
