Current workflow after uploading propositions

Currently, the evaluation of propositions takes place outside Hora Finita. After you submit the proposals in Hora Finita, the Doctoral Service Centre will contact you via your WUR email and the propositions will be discussed via email correspondence.

If your propositions are rejected, the Doctoral Service Centre will inform you of the next steps to get a final approved version. When a final version is approved, this approval is registered in Hora Finita.

The current process for reviewing propositions is as follows:

  1. The PhD candidate submits the propositions via Hora Finita
  2. The supervisor is notified of this submission and approves the propositions
  3. After this, the Doctoral Service Centre is notified of the submission and downloads the propositions
  4. A member of the Academic Board will review the propositions
  5. Via outlook, potential rejections and feedback are communicated to the PhD candidate, until a consensus on the final version of the propositions is reached
     Correspondence with the Doctoral Service Centre should be done via [email protected]
  6. The Graduation Office changes the original proposal document for the final version in Hora Finita
  7. The Graduation Office approves the propositions in Hora Finita
  8. The PhD candidate receives an email notifying them on the approval of their propositions

Rejection of the propositions

If your propositions are rejected, you will receive an email informing you of the rejection along with feedback stating what changes/improvements must be made in order for the propositions to be approved.

Please note: you cannot resubmit the propositions via Hora Finita! You should directly submit then to the Doctoral Service Centre via email to [email protected].
