Tthe evaluation process is electronic and master's theses are published in electronic form only.
The Electronic Master's Thesis Process means submitting one's master's thesis, which has passed language response, for plagiarism check. After the submission, if the thesis successfully passes the plagiarism check, the supervisor forwards it for thesis evaluation.
Simultaneously, the student shall fill out a form for electronic publication.When Educational Service has received the thesis evaluators' statements, the thesis is assessed by the Head of Department. Finally, the thesis is published by Åbo Akademi University Library.
NB! After the thesis has proceeded to plagiarism check, the examination process is initiated and the supervising process is concluded, thus, changes to the contents of the thesis are no longer possible (given the thesis does not fail any of the examinations or checks mentioned above).
The role of the supervisor is of great importance as
1) he/she shall provide correct information to the student for the plagiarism check and the electronic publication of the thesis, and
2) after the thesis has passed the plagiarism checks, he/she shall send the thesis to the correct receiver for subject evaluation.
