Oral exams are public

Oral examinations are public, but on the examinee’s request the examination will take place behind closed doors.

Moreover, the Board of Studies may decide in particular cases that an examination is not public, and specify who may be present during the examination.

Only the internal and external examiners may be present during the voting. The Board of Studies may, however, decide that future examiners may be present at the voting as well.[
