Findings showed that both Research Seminar sessions, which was the Defense of Proposal Seminar and Presentation of Findings Seminar, were highly regulated by expert members especially the chairpersons; the form and order of both sessions were highly structured in an academic setting; and that many different manifestations of 'questioning' was evident in the inquiring of the candidates by the expert members.
