Hard and meaningful college life is coming to an end, and college students should pass the final graduation thesis before graduation. Graduation thesis is a prepared form to test the achievements of university study. How to write a graduation thesis? The following is the purpose and significance of my graduation thesis defense, for reference only. Welcome to reading.

1. What is graduation thesis defense?

Graduation thesis defense is a face-to-face meeting between members of the defense Committee (hereinafter referred to as the defense teacher) and students who write graduation thesis. The defense teacher asks questions related to the thesis and asks the students to answer them face to face. It has questions, answers and arguments.

Defense is a form of debate, which can be divided into contest debate, dialogue debate and question-and-answer debate according to its different forms. Defense is short for question-and-answer debate. Compared with competitive debate, thesis defense has the following characteristics:

1, the defense is obviously unequal. First of all, the number of people is not equal. The number of respondents to the graduation thesis is not equal, and only one person will attend the defense meeting. On the other hand, there are three or more defense teams or defense committees composed of teachers or related experts. Generally speaking, the defense team or the defense committee is always in an active and censored position, while the author of the paper is always in a passive and censored position, and their knowledge, experience, qualifications and experiences are very different.

2. The National Defense Commission has a dual identity. In addition to the two sides involved in the debate, there is also a special referee, that is, a "third party" to judge the pros and cons of both sides. Although the thesis defense should also be judged, it is not judged by the temporary referee, but by the defense team or defense Committee, one party attending the defense meeting, to evaluate the thesis and defense of the other party, that is, the author of the thesis. It can be seen that in the graduation thesis defense meeting, the defense teacher has a dual identity: both a debater and a referee.

3. The preparation of the author's defense covers a wide range. In order to successfully pass the defense, the author of graduation thesis needs to be fully prepared before the defense. However, the topic at the graduation thesis defense meeting was drawn up by the defense teacher of one of the participants in the defense meeting according to the paper provided by the other party. There are not one topic for defense, but many, usually three or more, and the topics drawn up by the defense team are kept secret from the other party, that is, the author of the paper, before the defense meeting. There are generally two situations after the defense teacher asks questions: one is to let the students, that is, the author of the paper, prepare for a period of time (usually within half an hour) independently, and then answer them on the spot; Another situation is that there is no time for students to prepare, and students should answer immediately after answering the teacher's questions. So, although before the thesis defense meeting, students. I also have to prepare for the defense meeting, but the questions raised at the defense meeting are difficult to prepare (because I don't know in advance), so I can only think and prepare my own papers and related issues extensively.

4. The expression is mainly based on questions and answers, supplemented by debates. Thesis defense is generally conducted in the form of questions and answers, which are asked by members of the defense Committee and answered by the author. In the process of question and answer, sometimes the author and the members of the defense Committee have different views, and then they will and should debate. But in general, the thesis defense is mainly in the form of questions and answers, supplemented by debates of different viewpoints.

Second, the purpose of graduation thesis defense

For the organizer-school and respondent-author of graduation thesis, the purpose of graduation thesis defense is different.

The purpose of organizing graduation thesis defense is simply to further investigate the thesis, that is, to further investigate and verify the author's understanding of the topics discussed in the thesis and his ability to demonstrate the topics on the spot; Further investigate the depth and breadth of the graduation thesis author's mastery of professional knowledge; Check whether the graduation thesis is completed by the students themselves.

1. Further testing and verifying the author's understanding of the thesis and his ability to demonstrate the topic on the spot is one of the purposes of organizing graduation thesis defense in colleges and universities. Generally speaking, the papers submitted by students can roughly reflect students' understanding of their own papers and their ability to demonstrate topics. However, due to various reasons, some problems have not been fully expounded, some may be limited to the overall structure, some may not be developed due to space constraints, and some may be that the author thinks this issue is not important or does not think it is necessary to elaborate; Some of them are probably the weak links that the author deliberately avoided because he couldn't go deep or didn't know clearly, and some may be the shortcomings that the author didn't realize at all. By asking and answering these questions, we can further find out what the author didn't do in-depth analysis, so as to understand the students' knowledge, understanding depth and ability to demonstrate the topic on the spot.

Secondly, the second purpose of organizing graduation thesis defense is to further investigate the depth and breadth of professional knowledge mastered by the author of graduation thesis. Through the examination paper, we can also see the depth and breadth of the knowledge that students have mastered. However, the main purpose of writing graduation thesis is not to examine the depth and breadth of students' knowledge, but to examine students' ability to analyze and solve problems independently by comprehensively using what they have learned, and to cultivate and exercise their ability to conduct scientific research. Some knowledge used by students in writing papers has been mastered and can be used comprehensively; Some may have a little knowledge and have not turned it into their own knowledge; Others may mechanically copy other people's articles, and the basic meaning is not clear. At the defense meeting, members of the defense team put forward some unclear, unlucky, incomplete, inaccurate and imperfect opinions in the paper, so that the author can answer them on the spot, so as to test whether the author has a deep knowledge base, creative opinions and sufficient and solid reasons for the issues discussed.

Third, the third purpose of graduation thesis defense is to examine whether students finish their graduation thesis independently, that is, to test the authenticity of graduation thesis. Writing a graduation thesis requires study.

Under the guidance of the teacher, it is done by the teacher independently, but it is not done under the strict supervision of the teacher like exams, but in a long period of time (usually one semester), it is inevitable that a few unconscious students will take chances and cheat by various means. Especially in open universities such as TV University and Correspondence University, students have a wide range, a large number, a large number of students, loose organization and uneven quality, and it is difficult to put an end to unhealthy trends such as ghostwriting and plagiarism. Instructors must be strict, but it is difficult for a teacher to guide multiple students on different topics and different ranges of papers. The defense team or defense committee is composed of more than three teachers, so the ability to identify the thesis is stronger. Through the questions and defense at the defense meeting, cheaters can be exposed, thus ensuring the quality of graduation thesis.

For the respondent (the author of graduation thesis), the purpose of defense is to pass, graduate on time and get a diploma. If students want to successfully pass the graduation thesis defense, they must understand the purpose of the graduation thesis defense organized by the above-mentioned schools, then make targeted preparations, continue to further scrutinize and study the related issues in the thesis, make the basic materials mentioned in the thesis accurate, and thoroughly understand the basic theories and viewpoints of the article.

Third, the significance of graduation thesis defense

Passing the defense is of course the goal of college graduates to participate in the defense of graduation thesis. However, if college graduates' understanding of defense is limited to this point, their attitude will be negative and coping. Only by fully understanding the significance of graduation thesis defense in many aspects can we devote ourselves to the preparation of graduation thesis defense with a positive attitude, appear confidently at the defense meeting, participate in the defense with the best mood and state, and give full play to our talents and level.
