Research project/business internship

Due to unforeseen circumstances the end date of the research project might change.

After the end date, the student has a maximum of 20 working days that they can take to wrap up any last project details without officially requesting an extension. If the delay is longer than that, the student must fill in the ‘rescheduling end date form’ in OSIRIS Case including the new end date, new planning for completion of the project and the motivation for this delay. The examiner and the research project coordinator will be prompted to review and approve the rescheduled end date via OSIRIS Case.

Valid reasons for postponing the end date are: more time spent on courses, extra time off due to personal circumstances, or if the examiner/supervisor needs more time due to personal circumstances. When student’s personal circumstances play a role, the student must discuss this with the academic counselor before submitting the rescheduling request. Gathering more data, better results, new insight within the research group, inclusion, DEC or METC, and other matters concerning day to day practice in research are not considered valid reasons.

Writing assignment

If your student exceeds these three months, they can find the instructions to ask for an extension of the end date.
