The thesis proposal refers to the first three chapters of the master's thesis, including the introduction, literature review, and research methods. Students should be able to complete the proposal in the third semester. Students need to give a full English oral report on the thesis proposal during the International Business Seminar course in the same semester. The presentation will be scheduled after the mid-term exam week, starting from the 10th week. The process is explained below:
Within two weeks after the beginning of the semester, fill out the "Thesis Report Application Form," including:
(1) Requested presentation weeks: Choose any two weeks from Week 10 to Week 16, and the presentation time will be arranged by the Seminar TA.
(2) Thesis title in English: Only the English title is required because the first report is a full English oral presentation.
Students only need to complete the top section of the form. After the form is signed by the thesis advisor, leave the last column blank (to be signed by the Seminar instructor after the presentation), and submit it to the department office. The department office will then submit the form to the Seminar TA for storage and arrangement. Any changes to the scheduled presentation order require the consent of the thesis advisor and the Seminar instructor.
(1) Choose two weeks from Week 10 to Week 16 for the presentation, and the Seminar TA will arrange the report time.
(2) Print out the slides of the presentation on paper based on the number of attending teachers on the day of the presentation.
(3) Confirm that the classroom equipment is working properly to assist with the oral presentation.
(4) If the presenter is abroad for an exchange program, internship, or other special reason on the day of the presentation, they must obtain the consent of the course teacher in advance and arrange a video conference for the report. If the report is incomplete due to poor wifi signal or improper equipment during the video conference, the course teacher may request the presenter to arrange another time for the report.
(5) After completing the presentation, confirm that the Seminar course teacher has signed the thesis report application form, and then submit it to the department office.
(6) If the English thesis proposal is not approved, it can be reported again during the semester, with a limit of one time per semester. 4. Other classroom requirements will be determined by the Seminar course teacher and communicated to the students and presenters.

Students should be able to complete their master's thesis wholly in the fourth semester, and present the final full version of their thesis in the Seminar class. The report should be presented orally, and the complete electronic version of the thesis should be submitted in English or Chinese. The report time will be arranged after the midterm exams, starting from week 10. The whole process is explained as follows:
Send the oral presentation slides to the Seminar TA one week before the presentation date.
Inform your advisor of the time and location of your presentation, and your advisor must attend the presentation.
On the day of the presentation: (1) Obtain the "Thesis Report Application Form" from the Seminar TA, and print the Master's Thesis Final Report Review Opinion Form. (2) Print a paper copy of your presentation slides according to the number of attending professors on that day. (3) Confirm that the classroom equipment can smoothly assist the oral presentation. (4) If the presenter is studying abroad, interning, or has other special reasons, they must obtain the consent of the instructor in advance and arrange a video presentation on the student’s own. If the video signal is poor or the equipment is improper during the process, the instructor may require the presenter to arrange another presentation. (5) After the presentation, confirm that the Seminar instructor and advisor have signed on the "Thesis Report Application Form" and the Master's Thesis Final Report Review Opinion Form, then submit them to the department office. (6) If the full report is not passed, the student can present again during the semester, with a maximum of one attempt per semester.
Other classroom requirements will be determined by the Seminar instructor and communicated to the students and presenters.

The two report times must be at least one month apart, and the presentation time must be selected during the class time of the semester.
