7th semester 3rd month: Accepting the members of the pre-defense (program leader, head of the school, - via e-mail),
invitation of the referees, sending the text to them
the secretary sends the text to plagiarism check, and send the result to thee referees
7th semester 4th month: The referees send their opinions, the student may send his/her replies

7th semester 5th month: finding members of the defense procedure (the chair and the referees may be that same as for the pre-defense, the members are to be accepted by the program leader and the head of the school. Needed to be given in paper and also in editable .docx form.)
The TTDT council accepts the members
8th semester 1st month: Finding a time and place for the defense
Sending the dissertation and the theses to the members
8th semester 2nd month: signing the last research worksubject by the supervisor, getting the absolutorium
8th semester 3-4th month: Taking the defense
The above roadmap has some buffer time in order to have the possibility to handle issues arising during the procedure.
Students may get one more year extension to have the defense, but their studentship ends at the end of the 4th year, meaning that they cannot get a student visa.
