Thesis and Dissertation Workshops
The College of Graduate Studies has instituted a processes for the submission and publication of theses and dissertations. While many things remain the same, we encourage you to attend one of our workshops as you develop and prepare your work for defense. Our goal is to make the process as clear as possible, so that your thesis or dissertation is published in the semester of its submission. Additional workshops will be added in November and in following semesters.
Upcoming Events

completing your Thesis/Dissertation, and is not specific to any disciplines. We welcome

to submit one in the future.
