What is involved in examining a research-based higher degree? What are the roles of the internal and external examiners? What are the hidden agendas of higher degree examining?

Addressed directly to the examiners, it contains a step-by-step account of the different stages of the examination process in order to provide an insiders' guide into what to expect before, during and after the oral examination. "How to Examine a Thesis" covers important issues such as: the power-relations between the two (or more) examiners; hidden agendas and foul play; examples of guidelines and regulations across different institutions; and, advice on MPhil as well as doctoral examinations. This book is essential reading for all higher degree examiners but is also of importance to those supervising, and studying for, higher degrees.
