The master’s thesis must be handed in via WISEflow.
You are not allowed to hand in a paper copy of the thesis, as it is the uploaded version that is legally binding. After you have handed in the thesis in WISEflow, it will automatically be made accessible to supervisor and external examiner when the hand-in period expires.
You will receive an email from WISEflow, when the flow opens, and it is possible to upload your thesis.
The flow will be a group flow. If you have not previously tried to upload an assignment in a WISEflow group flow, please read and follow the instructions carefully. If you are not in a group, you will have to choose "Create one-person group".
The thesis including appendixes must be saved as one PDF-file and uploaded under “Paper”.
Once you have uploaded your thesis, it is not possible to withdraw it. Therefore, you must make absolutely sure that you upload the correct version.
Under the category “Extra material”, you can upload material like movies, sound, programs (Excel, SAS mv.). The extra material does not have to be a pdf-file, and you can hand in more than one file up to a maximum size of 5 GB.
You will receive more information from the department regarding upload via Blackboard.
Submit your thesis before the set submission deadline
If you would like to submit your Master's thesis prior to the deadline, you must be aware of the following:
Early submission during the summer period during the second examination attempt
If you wish to submit your thesis in June or July, you must notify kandidat.bss@au.dk.
July is assessment-free, and individual evaluation deadlines must therefore be calculated for early submissions. As a rule, the assessment deadline will be four weeks + the month of July.
Please note, this is only possible for students who have not submitted by June 1st. If you do not pass the Master's thesis, you must familiarise yourself with the section below "If you do not pass your Master's thesis"
No access to OneDrive after graduation
Once your last grade is registered you will no longer have access to OneDrive. This means that you have to download and transfer your files from OneDrive before finishing your programme.
It is not possible to restore access to OneDrive once you have finished your programme at Aarhus University.
If you fail to submit your Master's thesis within the prescribed submission deadline, it means you will have spent an examination attempt.
You must subsequently prepare a revised thesis statement within the same subject area and with the same supervisor.
Please contact your supervisor no later than five days after you have received the not passing grade (not including the month of July). Together, you must prepare and agree on a revised thesis statement. You must upload the revised thesis statement to WISEflow, where it will await formal approval from your supervisor. (Please note that the July month is free of assessment).
It is your responsibility to contact your supervisor to initiate this process.
The new submission deadline for handing in your Master's thesis will be 3 months + 14 days from your original submission deadline. The new submission deadline will automatically come into effect the day after your orginal deadline. If you fail to submit your Master's thesis by the new deadline, it means you will have spent yet another examination attempt.
If you fail to submit your Master's thesis within the submission deadline for your second examination attempt, the same procedure will apply.
Registration for the second and third examination attempt will happen automatically.
To pass your Master's thesis, you have to achieve the grade 02 or higher. If your Master's thesis is not awarded the grade 02 or higher, you will have spent an examination attempt. You must subsequently prepare a revised thesis statement within the same subject area and with the same supervisor.
Please contact your supervisor no later than five days after you have received the not passing grade (not including the month of July). Together, you must prepare and agree on a revised thesis statement.
You must upload the revised thesis statement to WISEflow, where it will await formal approval from your supervisor. (Please note that the July month is free of assessment).
The new submission deadline for handing in your Master's thesis will be 3 months + 14 days from the assessment deadline for your first examination attempt. The new submission deadline will automatically come into effect the day after the assessment date. If you fail to submit your Master's thesis by the new deadline, it means you will have spent yet another examination attempt.
The same procedure will apply if your Master's thesis is not awarded the grade 02 or higher at your second examination attempt.
Especially for students writing Master's thesis in the spring semester
For students writing Master's thesis in the spring semester, the assessment deadline is 30 June.
Since the month of July does not count in the assessment period, the deadline for submission is three months + 14 days from 1st August and your 2nd examination attempt can therefore start at the earliest on 15 August. This notwithstanding that you will receive a non-pass assessment earlier than the 30 June.
