I wish my viva (our equivalent of the defense) was that soon! I just submitted my doctoral thesis on Friday (in its 400-page glory) and have yet to hear when I will be viva'd. Is it standard in your programme to have such a quick turnaround between submitting and defending? I may have to wait anywhere from 4 weeks to 3 months (the maximum time the examiners can take to read the thesis). Hopefully it's sooner rather than later...

Best of luck!!
OUrs we have to give it to them 3 weeks ahead of defending. Mine will end up being a bit closer to 2.5 weeks before defending, but not too bad. Part of my dissertation have already been published in peer review journals, so that helps make the process so quick. Also my dissertation will be more on the 250 page length. This helps to cut down the time they need to read it.
