In order to get a bachelor's degree, self-taught candidates need to pass the thesis defense and get excellent or good results.
The self-taught thesis defense procedure is the same as that of ordinary college graduates. After the examinee's thesis is written, the examiner's school will arrange teachers from related disciplines to form a defense team to defend. First of all, students will briefly introduce their own thesis views and make a brief statement. Then, the defense team will ask questions about the paper, and the questions will vary from person to person. Then, students will have time to prepare. After preparation, candidates need to answer the teacher's questions one by one. Then when the candidates avoid, they will answer them one by one.
Once the defense results are not excellent or good, you will not get a degree. This requires candidates to carefully collect information, make correct arguments and fully understand the development of the subject in the writing stage. Papers with novel ideas and close combination with reality are the most popular. It is forbidden to copy mechanically, or even ask someone to write for you. Once found, it will definitely not pass. If you feel too hasty and lack self-confidence, you can also apply for the defense in the next issue, which will not affect it.
Candidates generally get grades around June 15 and February 15, which are available in all districts and counties. (Beijing area)
Procedures for self-taught undergraduates to write undergraduate graduation thesis;
Generally speaking, self-taught undergraduates have to go through the following processes to write their graduation thesis: 1, qualification examination; 2. Pay the fee and appoint a tutor; 3. attend classes; 4. Candidates write the outline of the thesis and accept the guidance of the tutor; 5. thesis defense.
1, qualification approval
Candidates who have passed all the courses (including written examination and course practice assessment) prescribed by the undergraduate course according to the professional examination plan can present their admission ticket, diploma of junior college (or the original diploma of junior college), examination transcripts of all subjects, exemption certificate and personal thesis topic selection direction within the specified time (in late June of the first half of the year and in late February of the second half, for details, see Beijing Examination Report of that month).
2. Pay the fee and appoint a tutor.
After passing the qualification examination, candidates should pay fees in the examiner's college within a specified time (usually about one week). After collecting the relevant fees, the examiner's college will designate an instructor for the candidate according to the direction of the topic declared by the candidate in advance, and inform the candidate of the specific contact information of the instructor. Before contacting the tutor, candidates should collect as much relevant information as possible in combination with the topic, and through induction and digestion, initially form the idea of writing papers, so as to facilitate the communication between teachers and students and enable the tutor to give targeted guidance.
3. Thesis lectures
What is a thesis? How to choose a topic? How to collect materials and refine opinions? How to organize articles? These are the key issues that candidates are generally confused before writing a thesis, which will affect the quality of thesis writing. The purpose of the thesis lecture is to help candidates clear their minds, solve their puzzles and finally finish the thesis smoothly. So this is also an important link that candidates must take seriously. Thesis lectures are generally arranged before and after payment, and are taught by teachers of the same or related majors in colleges and universities.
4. Candidates write an outline of the thesis and accept the guidance of the teacher.
After meeting the tutor for the first time, candidates will enrich or modify the existing writing ideas according to the requirements of the tutor and form an outline of the paper. For writers, the quality of the outline is directly related to the effectiveness of paper writing. It is no exaggeration to say that writing an outline of a paper is equivalent to completing half of the task of writing a paper. Candidates should be reminded that the formal writing of the thesis should begin after the instructor approves the outline; From the outline to the manuscript, the paper generally has to go through many iterations. Candidates should humbly accept the guidance of their tutors and carefully revise and improve their papers.
Step 5 answer
After the thesis is formally finalized, candidates will enter the last link of thesis writing-defense. Before the defense, candidates should print several final drafts as required and hand them over to the relevant teachers for defense.
The thesis defense is generally conducted before the end of May or before the end of 1 1 (the specific arrangement is determined by the examiner's institution). The procedure of thesis defense basically includes three items: candidates briefly explain the writing motivation, content outline and basic viewpoints of the thesis; Members of the defense team ask questions about the contents of the candidates' papers; If the defense team thinks it is necessary, it will also raise other questions within the scope of the thesis. These questions need to be answered seriously by candidates, and will affect their test scores.
6. About the writing cycle and assessment methods of papers.
For most majors, it only takes about 5 months from qualification examination to the end of thesis defense. But there are exceptions, such as computer and application, construction engineering and other majors, and the graduation design cycle is one year.
In addition, unlike most majors' graduation assessment methods, English majors don't use the way of thesis writing defense, but use the way of on-site written examination in English literature, British and American social culture and translation.
