Prosthetic Dentistry Yeditepe University

Overview

A student registered in this Prosthetic Dentistry MSc program at Yeditepe University has to write his/her thesis according to the rules determined by the Senate and present it for defence in front of a jury. The jury should be composed by five members, 3 of which being from the Thesis Monitoring Committee and at least one being a member from another University.  The defense examination should take place at latest one month after thesis submission to the jury members. The examination consists of a thesis presentation followed by a question-and-answer session. At the end of the defense the jury deliberates and decides for an approval, revision or a failure according to the majority vote. At least 3 copies of the approved theses should be submitted to the Institute at latest one month after the defense date.  For an approval with revisions decision, the properly revised thesis should be resubmitted and defended at latest 6 months later in front of the same jury members. In case of a failure thesis or failure of thesis defense after correction, students are given a new thesis topic.
