The official graduation material

Notice that you have to follow the rules of the year you started your graduation work. Even if it takes you 2 years to complete, the rules that applied when you started are the rules that apply during your whole graduation process.

P1

P2

  • you do not need to register for P2 yourself, the coordinator (Clara) does this for all students who submitted topics
  • template P2
  • one week before your P2, you need to email your final P2 proposal to: (1) your first supervisor; (2) your second supervisor; (3) the delegate of the board of examiners assigned to you (you can see that in the calendar entry for your P2); (4) ‘BoardofExaminers-BK@tudelft.nl’. The email must state as subject: “P2 graduation plan + [your student number]”.

P3

  • you do not need to register for P3 or do anything special
  • at one meeting with your first supervisor (before registering for P4), you should reflect on the progress done
  • your first supervisor will register the P3 in the system

P4

  • during the P2 session, you are registered for P4 (and a date is chosen). If this was done, you do not need to register for P4
  • however, you do need to cancel your P4 if you don’t go to the planned date. You do this by sending an email to your 2 supervisors, the delegate, and to afstuderen-bk@tudelft.nl
  • if you are not registered for P4, then this form must be used
  • for the P4, you need to pick a co-reader, this person will read and send feedback/questions to your supervisors. This person is chosen by your supervisors and you. It’s the best person at TUDelft for the topic, and outsiders from other universities are allowed (and can attend online).
  • what needs to be submitted is between your supervisors and you, speak to them. Usually, a draft of your thesis needs to be handed in. A draft means what your supervisors say it should be, there are no strict rules (but this can help)
  • you need to upload the draft to the Brightspace Plagiarism Scan page. It’s complex, so follow the steps on this page
  • P4 is a go/nogo, thus what you submit is assessed.
  • template P4
