Organisational remarks and main changes to the course

It is recalled that the master's thesis supervisor remains the main source of information for the student about the design, writing, scientific quality, organization, relevance and completion of the thesis. The (co-)supervisor(s) and the student are invited to assume their respective responsibilities in this regard.
The thesis must be submitted no later than the first day of the examination session at which it will be defended and credited.
In addition, given the pedagogical objective of course AGRO0024 (research project associated with the internship/memoir), the thesis must be submitted at a later session than the session in which the AGRO0024 course report is submitted, except in exceptional circumstances.
