In some cases you should use the exemption form, "Thesis application exemption form":
- If the main field of study for the course does not match with the main field of study for the programme
(Applies only to 30 and 60 credit theses/degree projects) - If you want to register on an older programme code that is no longer given
The completed form must be digitally signed by the examiner and Head of programme/Director of master's programme. It must be sent in at least four weeks before your estimated start date. This is done by the person who last signed the document.
The document must then be sent to: thesis@chalmers.se.

Register for your thesis/degree project in Ladok
When your form is received and everything is correct, it will be included in Ladok showing that you are expected to do your thesis/degree project. You are then responsible for registering on the course yourself (just as with other course registration). The registration opens Monday three weeks before the course instance starts and closes Tuesday of the second week of the course instance.
For those who have not completed their thesis/degree project
To re-register for a thesis/degree project you have started but not finished (with the same course code as before), use the services in Ladok for students. Select “My education" and "Change to another course instance.” You should not fill in a new form. If this does not work, you are welcome to contact us at our contact address.
