To graduate and obtain a Master's degree in the current semester, students must complete their thesis oral defense by Jan. 31 or July 31 of that semester, taking into account the library's deadline for thesis submission, and complete the school-leaving procedures before the start of the next semester. Students must first confirm that they have met the following conditions before confirming the examination date, location, and committee members with their advisors. The conditions include:
At least two weeks before the examination date, students should submit the list of examination committee members to the department office and confirm that the examination committee members are listed in the "Suggested Examination Committee Members List" provided by the advisor. If the list is not available, students should ask their advisors to supplement the list for review by the International Business Master's Degree Thesis Committee.
After confirming the correctness of the thesis defense committee member list, the student should type in the "Examination Committee List" (do not handwrite it). The list should include at least three members:
The list should include at least three committee members. In the remarks column, indicate which person is the advisor and which person is the Chair (usually the external committee member) to facilitate the preparation of the invitation letters.
If there are two advisors, the committee should include at least four members, including at least two external members.
The title, name, highest degree, service school, and internal or external committee member status of each committee member should be determined and typed by the student. The department office will print the invitation letters and the examination fee list.
At least one week before the examination date, students should mail a bound draft copy of their thesis (paperback is sufficient) and invitation letters to the examination committee members. Students should proactively inquire about the mailing address of each committee member, and not make assumptions.
Examination fee form: obtain from the IBS department assistant.
Master's Thesis Score Report: Students should type in the Chinese title of the thesis, which must match the title registered on the School System. Otherwise, they must apply for a title change. Three copies of this result form must be printed, one for each examination committee member.
The Average Score Report for the Master's Thesis Defense is to be typed and submitted by the student. The Chinese title of the thesis must match the title recorded in the School's System; otherwise, a request for a change of title must be made. One copy of the report must be printed, and each member of the defense committee must sign it in turn.
The Master's Thesis Examination Results Notification Form should be typed by the student to input the Chinese and English titles of the thesis and other personal information. This notification form should be printed on one page and filled out by the advisor.

The Master's Thesis Examination Committee Approval Form is to be typed by the student, including the Chinese and English titles of the thesis, which must be consistent with the titles registered in the School System. If there are any discrepancies, the student must apply for a change of title. This approval form must be printed out and signed by each member of the examination committee in turn.

After the thesis defense, if the thesis approval certificate is obtained, the following steps can be taken for thesis uploading and printing:
Please pay attention to the thesis upload deadline set by the NCNU Library, for example, for the 111-1 academic semester, it is February 10, 2023 (Friday).
Ensure that the English abstract is at least 500 words.
Adjust the electronic thesis format according to the "Chinese Thesis Format and Template" provided by the library's "School Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Service". If the thesis format required by the advisor is different from the school format, follow the advisor's requirements.
After submitting the final draft of the thesis, a complete report record of the "Thesis Originality Checking System" must be submitted. The result of the plagiarism check should be below 30% and the thesis originality should be confirmed by the advisor and documented on the "Thesis Originality Review Form" which must be submitted to the department office for record-keeping.
Please follow the "National Chi Nan University Thesis Upload Instructions" and the "Degree Thesis Submission Matters".
