Looking for Theses and Dissertations?
Many theses and dissertations are now being housed within ScholarWorks. Check here first for materials from approximately 2012 to present, though some materials date back to 2009.
Otherwise, master's theses and doctoral dissertations can be found by searching OneSearch (the libraries' catalog) for author, title, or subject by clicking the box underneath the OneSearch search box on the Libraries' homepage before you search, or by clicking the filter Material Type: Dissertations in the left hand column on the OneSearch search results page after you search.
You can also search by department or faculty advisor in the keyword search; examples:
- advisor gawley robert and synthesis
- dept physics and lasers
Note that recently completed dissertations and theses go first to ProQuest. It may take several weeks for dissertations and theses to be added to ScholarWorks and even longer for their addition to the library catalog.
