Graduation design refers to the summative homework assigned to students by technical universities and secondary specialized schools before graduation. Graduation thesis refers to the thesis that students are required to write for scientific research and training of their major before graduation.

The content is different. Graduation design is the theoretical study of graduates according to the teaching plan. Graduation thesis is a problem related to professional field. Write a graduation thesis through the argument obtained from the research.

Different forms, graduation design is under the guidance of the tutor, students choose their own topics for engineering design and research. Try to choose practical topics, theoretical topics and curriculum design for graduates according to the teaching plan. After checking the weight, it can be qualified.

Graduation thesis refers to the graduation thesis put forward by the tutor, confirmed by the teacher, and proved by the graduates' continuous research on the related theoretical or practical problems in their fields during their school days, thus writing it.

Graduation design refers to students' summative independent work before graduation, which is the last link of practical teaching and often appears in the assessment of engineering and agriculture and forestry students. Students need to carry out engineering design and research under the guidance of teachers, mainly including design, calculation, drawing, technology, economic demonstration and rationalization suggestions, and finally submit a scientific and reasonable professional experimental scheme and present experimental results.

The graduation thesis is the elaboration and explanation of the subject, mainly examining the students' knowledge system, which is embodied in the form of a simple article, and finally a document can be submitted.
