Submit theses/dissertations for graduation by 28 November
This is a reminder that theses and dissertations for the December 2024 graduation series have to be uploaded to SUNScholar via the “Thesis management” capability on SUNStudent by 28 November 2024.
Due to the SUNStudent landing page layout, “Thesis Management” is located under the tab for “Examinations” although they are separate functions.
[cid:be8d0169-5b82-43d7-9a40-1f6f36122635]
The Thesis Management functionality will only accept the master copy of a thesis or dissertation as described in Stellenbosch University’s General Yearbook. The master copy is the version of the document after it has been examined, and the graduand has made the necessary alterations to the satisfaction of the supervisor/co-supervisors, and examiners (refer to the General Yearbook: page 54)
Information on the process steps is available on the SUNStudent Learning Library under Thesis Management<https://stellenbosch.sharepoint.com/sites/SUNStudentCRPandTrainingsessions/Thesis%20Management/Forms/AllItems.aspx>.
