PUBLIC NATURE OF A THESIS (CONFIDENTIALITY)
In exceptional cases, students may ask for confidentiality of their thesis.
If there are any restrictions on confidentiality (data collection, confidential information of the organisation) executing/making the thesis, these restrictions should be registered before the start of the graduation phase, in the graduation contract of the programme. There are different ways to deal with restrictions on confidentiality. The basic principle is that all theses are public. Fully confidential theses are allowed very rarely, and approval of the examination board is necessary (see 'Public nature of thesis' in the list of request types).
