Comments on: [Thesis proposal regulations] Changes are a-happening http://iimbastudentcouncil.com/thesis-proposal-regulations-changes-are-a-happening/ National Cheng Kung University Institude of International Management and Business Administration Student Council Tue, 30 Mar 2010 11:49:57 +0000 hourly 1 By: Jojo http://iimbastudentcouncil.com/thesis-proposal-regulations-changes-are-a-happening/#comment-2669 Jojo Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:03:30 +0000 http://iim.incku.com/?p=259#comment-2669 the official notice just got posted on the IIMBA website. I posted here because I almost choked when I heard about the change (random by-the-way comment from someone) and so I figured after mentioning to the office that something official should be sent out to all seniors as soon as possible since it's vital information, that I would post here just as a heads up until that notice came out - under the assumption that there were many others in my situation of needing-to-know (I have gotten accustomed to the pace of official information dissemination here). i personally think the set-days make sense since it makes it all the easier for scheduling and professors (many universities use this method), but I agree that since our class is exceptionally big, I see it as a large feat to get all of us done within Jan, Feb and March dates (3 days, 30-40 each day...3-4 rooms, 10 per room per day...hoooya). other universities have given students 10 min to present their proposal, then 10 min or so to ask questions and give advice, then they discuss amongst themselves, then bring student back in ... all in all taking 40+ min I think. don't know if our timings will change to something similar or not. the official notice just got posted on the IIMBA website.

ONE WEEK BEFORE only, meaning 1 week for formatting police (soft copy) +1 week hard copy for profs (through office) = 2 weeks before proposal must be complete first 3 chapters = for those of us on jan 12, we don't have to be done until Dec 29th~~ woopwoop~ update [as per discussion with Jay a few minutes ago]! the hard copies for our panel members only need to be handed in to the office one week before the proposal date so that they can be given to the professors by the office.
