Defences of Theses in January 2022

Defences of bachelor’s and master’s theses at the Department of International Business will take place on Monday, January 17th, 2022 from 9 am to 6 pm. The defences will be held in person.

At the Department of International Business, a student’s performance is expected to be accompanied by a presentation of the student´s thesis in PowerPoint. The presentation should take approximately 5-7 minutes and follow the required structure:

– the goal and purpose of your thesis;

– structure;

– methodology (including (according to what you used) research questions and hypotheses);

– main findings;

– main sources.

The student’s presentation is followed by a discussion based on the assessments by the academic consultant (supervisor) and the opponent (further relevant questions can be raised by any member of the commission). As a final part of the presentation, the student can also prepare slides with answers to questions from the assessments.

In order to smoothly proceed with the defence, please, send your PowerPoint presentation to the department secretary (jarmila.kopecka@vse.cz) by Friday 14 January 2022.

Holding defences online is only possible in exceptional cases. The student must apply for an online defence in advance through the InSIS contact center.

We look forward to your presentation and subsequent discussion.
