UWS Digital Theses

The University of Western Sydney is a member of the Australasian Digital Theses Program. This is a national collaborative programme which aims to establish a distributed database of digital versions of theses produced by postgraduate research students at Australasian universities.

The Library has retrospectively converted hard copy UWS higher degree theses to provide digital access. In future, all postgraduate research theses received by the Library will be digitised to allow for wider dissemination of UWS research.

The national policy for addition to the ADT stipulates that only Masters (Research) theses and above may be added to the ADT and UWS Library conforms to this.

Currently, when submitting a thesis, a Right of Access to Thesis form must also be completed and submitted with the final document and forward to Office of Academic Registrar Postgraduate Research Officer (Exams). Theses should be submitted electronically, in PDF format to HDRexams@uws.edu.au

At present, you may:

• Search the UWS digital thesis site for a specified topic/thesis
• Browse a list of UWS theses
• Search the entire Australasian Digital Thesis database
• Download the Thesis Submission Form
