  Thesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A thesis defence ("defending one's thesis") is a type of final examination for a Ph.D. candidate, and sometimes for a masters candidate.
The purpose of the thesis defense is to test the candidate's knowledge of his or her subject area and thinking in related areas, and to test the candidate's knowledge of and ability to explain his or her dissertation.
Thesis defenses are usually open to the public (they may be attended by friends or family of the candidate, members of the university (especially other students in the candidate's department) and members of the community); audience members are often permitted to ask questions when all the examiners have finished.

 Doctor of Philosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The successful completion of a doctoral program typically takes 3 to 6 years depending upon the specific field of study, prior experience and/or training, and the progress made by the doctoral candidate in his or her studies.
The doctoral candidate's progress is usually overseen by a thesis advisor, or supervisor, who chairs a thesis committee which supervises the doctoral candidate.
In some schools a student can write an additional thesis at this point and receive a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) degree; in others, the MPhil (sometimes Candidate in Philosophy, CPhil) is conferred on an ABD student who has been advanced to candicacy for the Ph.D., having completed all requirements except the doctoral thesis or dissertation.
