Dissertation Preparation Guidelines<\/a>” to ensure that you follow the rules.<\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n
3. Dissertation Review<\/h5>\r\n
The dissertation review is conducted by the Review Committee, which shall comprise three or more professors or associate professors from the graduate school, including at least two professors. One of the committee members shall serve as chief examiner and the others as assistant examiners. To be more specific, the committee shall comprise an academic supervisor, one or more professors from an academic field closely related to that of an applicant (from the same department as that of the chief examiner) and one or more professors from another field (from a department or division different from that of the chief examiner). When needed, the committee may have one or more additional examiners who are qualified to provide research guidance to students in the doctoral degree program and who specialize in an academic field closely related to that of the applicant.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
4. Final Exam<\/h5>\r\n
The Review Committee will give a written or oral final exam mainly on the dissertation and related subjects. The committee will notify you of the exam subjects, date and other details.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
5. Dissertation Presentation<\/h5>\r\n
The Review Committee will hold a Dissertation Presentation.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
6. Decision on Degree Conferral and Finalization of the Title of Degree to be Stated on Diploma<\/h5>\r\n
A meeting of the Faculty Council will be held to determine whether or not the degree is to be conferred and to finalize the title of degree to be stated on the diploma, based on the dissertation review and final exam results reported by the Review Committee.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
7. Publication of Doctoral Dissertations<\/h5>\r\n
Due to an amendment of the regulations for dissertation publication in April, 2013, all Doctoral conferees must now make the entire text of their dissertations publically available online within one year from the date of conferment. The new rule has designated the Kobe University Repository Kernel as its preferred online publication medium.
\r\nFor those who were conferred a doctoral degree before April 2013, it is also available to publish your doctoral dissertation online through the Kobe University Repository Kernel on request.
