FINAL DEFENSE AS RESEARCH CULMINATING ACTIVITIES

Before oral defense:

1. The student who underwent research study hands in the required number of
copies for research proposal to the panelist at least five (5) working days before
the defense.
2. The researcher defends the proposal before a panel duly constituted for the
purpose. He/she must secure and fill-up application for final defense. Before the
faculty in charge and the department head sign the Application for final defense,
the student must present a full draft of his/her research study.

Defense proper:

The oral defense is a formal academic activity. As such, proper decorum should be
maintained during and after the proceedings.

1. The student-leader introduces the proponents who are dressed in business attire.
2. The proponent leads the opening prayer.

4. The proponents present the highlights (abstract) of the study.
5. After the proponent’s presentation, the panel chair opens and moderates the
panel discussion/oral defense.
6. The panel chairman formally ends the defense and the panel then evaluates, in
private, the performance of the proponent’s response to the panelists’ questions.
7. After the panel deliberation, the chair of the panel calls back the proponents to
