description Introduction: Thesis is the last part of graduate programs, especially general medicine program, in which students engage in research work related to their academic disciplines, and publish the results of the thesis (according to the existing regulations). Assessment of Interns’ view about existing thesis-related rules can lead to revision and qualitative and quantitative improvement of thesis process (i.e. topic approval, research skills, budgeting, thesis defense, and research line). Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on medical interns who defend their thesis and graduated in 2010. 82 interns were selected through census method. Data gathering was done using a researcher-made questionnaire (alpha cronbach coefficient= 0.86). Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics. Results: The Results showed the mean score of thesis topic approval process in educational group (16.92.06), thesis topic approval process in the research council (10/472/03), research skills (21/023/08), budgeting process (21/114/02), defense process (13/11/38), and research line (7/011/61). Conclusion: Based on the results, most interns had very little satisfaction. It seems that it is necessary to plan some workshops about research methodology, writing proposals, budgeting, writing a thesis and papers for interns.
