Licentiate seminars and half‑time seminars
A licentiate seminar is the occasion at which the doctoral student publicly defends their thesis. The decision to approve the notification of a licentiate seminar is made by the Dean following quality assurance by the collegium of the third-cycle subject. Only one licentiate seminar may be held per day within the Faculty.
A half-time seminar is an alternative to a licentiate seminar.
Information on half-time seminars
A half-time seminar may replace a licentiate seminar if the research project is to continue towards a doctoral thesis. The purpose of the half-time seminar is to provide a quality review and support the doctoral student’s continued third-cycle studies. The half-time seminar is not an examination.
After the half-time seminar has been completed, the completed half-time seminar certificate should be submitted to the Faculty Office.

Instructions for licentiate seminars
In order for the application for a licentiate seminar to be handled by the faculty office, the application must be prepared and planned well in advance. Only one licentiate seminar or dissertation is allowed to be held on a given day.
For a complete description of the procedures for public defences at the Faculty of Science, Technology and Media, please refer to the procedure description below.
Contact the printing house, vaktmasteriet.svl@miun.se, as soon as the date for the licentiate seminar is booked. Periodically, many people are going to print their theses, so it can be difficult to get a time for printing that fits the planned degree date. If you have to change the date for printing/proofing, you must make sure that the printing company is informed of this so that they can change their planning.
