Detailed guide for thesis defence388.21 KB
University of Lorraine
As of July 1st 2021, the whole defence procedure will become electronic and will be done via ADUM. The round of defence authorization/approval will be done thanks to a workflow system that will automatically inform each participant of the successive validations to be done.
From now on, you will submit your thesis in two steps :
Step 1: Declare your defence and submit your thesis on ADUM (8 weeks before the defence)
- You declare the members of your committee and submit your manuscript on your ADUM interface.
- An email is then sent to your supervisor, the head of your doctoral school and to the Vice President for graduate school strategy, in order to collect their successive opinion.
- Once the VP has given her opinion, you will receive an email confirming the validation of the committee composition and your administrative officer will contact both the committee and the pre-examiners.
Step 2: The authorization to defend in light of the reports (4 weeks before the defence)
- The pre-examiners submit their « reports » on the ADUM platform. You will then receive an automatic email for each submission.
- Once the pre-examiners have submitted their reports, the head of the doctoral school gives his/her opinion on the authorization to defend. The Vice President for graduate school strategy will then give her decision. You will receive an email informing you of this decision. If you are authorized to defend, the administrative officer of your doctoral school will confirm the defence to the members of the committee.
- Your supervisor can then upload the official documents available in his/her ADUM space, for your defence.
