!! DEADLINES !! The thesis must be sent to the secretariat by Aug. 31, the oral defence must take place before Sept. 10 and the grade must be submitted by Sept. 15 (grades submitted after this deadline will not be recorded for the Spring semester). 

2.     After validation of the master's work (dissertation and oral defence) and receipt of the mark, the secretariat will send confirmation to the student by e-mail.
