Scholar Works contains graduate student theses and dissertations. All graduate students must submit an electronic copy of their thesis or dissertation. A project to scan and print theses and dissertations has greatly enhanced the historical content in Scholar Works, and content continues to be added regularly as students defend and submit their completed work to us.
Students do not submit their work directly to Scholar Works. We place a copy in Scholar Works when we approve the electronic copy for submission to ProQuest.
If you are interested in a research guide detailing the steps involved with doing a study, check out the Social/Behavioral Research InfoGuide. Although this focuses on social/behavioral topics, the research principles apply to STEMM research.
The web sites below should also be consulted as appropriate to perform a full and thorough review of the dissertation and thesis literature beyond your introductory search of ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global. Consider whether a particular country or part of the world would have an interest in your potential research topic.
Only large-scale repositories of dissertations and theses are included here. You may also need to search individual university repositories directly.
