We do not accommodate a change in the viva date and/or time unless it is due to extenuating circumstances. The Graduate Research School provides students with advance notice of their viva date and time. Students are required to set aside at least 2 to 3 hours for the viva voce as it is a vital part of their thesis examination.
Note: We may be unable to run a viva voce during normal working hours between 9:00am and 5:00pm due to differing time zones with examiners.
If you would like to request a reschedule due to extenuating circumstances, provide contact us via askUWA.
Further information on the thesis examination processes can be found on the intranet - HDR Candidature.
