The process of completing a degree in the non-thesis track is performed in two stages:

    Extra courses cannot be addressed after the process of completing the degree has begun. Request form for the exclusion of excess courses.
  1. For departments that use an “entry/exit form”, please refer to the office of the department and complete it.
  2. For departments that submit completion/seminar/project essays, cover pages (Hebrew and English) should be uploaded in My Graduation. If the work was performed with additional students, the distribution of the work should be uploaded with the Hebrew cover page (one file).

 

In addition, the departmental graduate secretary will upload the additional documents.

Graduation Procedures Office of the Graduate School

The documents will be handled  by the Graduation Procedures Office of the Graduate School. After checking them, the Graduation Procedures Office will contact the department of student accounts in order to close the tuition account.

The date of eligibility for the degree will be determined as the date on which the last document and confirmation are  received. For students who have a tuition balance, the eligibility date will be date of completing the financial obligations.

After completing the academic requirements and the financial obligations, the student’s file is ready for the examination of the Degree Committee. The Degree Committee of the Technion convenes eight times annually. The Degrees Committee examines the basis of the students’ files and checks whether the students have complied with all the academic requirements and fulfilled all their requirements at the Technion.

After the approval of the Degrees Committee, a list of degree recipients is transferred for the approval of the Technion’s Senate members. Five days from the date the notice was sent to the Senate, if there is no opposition, the approval for eligibility that includes a certificate for the completion of studies and an approved transcript is sent out.

The certificates will be sent to the student’s private email.

The diplomas are granted in a ceremony once per year.
