This guide shows you how to find Masters and PhD theses, online and in print, from:
- The University of Melbourne
- Other Australian universities
- Outside Australia
Why use theses?
Theses can be a valuable source of information, especially for topics where there are fewer published works available.
The references or works cited in a thesis can also be useful to find further published sources on a topic.
If you are currently writing a thesis (Honours, Masters or PhD) you may want to:
- check if anyone has recently completed a PhD thesis in your area of research internationally
- look at PhD theses from your faculty (or supervised by your supervisor) to get an idea of how to format your thesis.
