Several improvements recently were made in the way final documents and fees are submitted for completing dissertations and theses.
The downloadable form for Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETD) was simplified and reduced to a single page. The form should be scanned and emailed to aura.young@uncc.edu. Just as before, the committee chair’s signature is required for students’ work to be accepted into ProQuest. (In the case of an unsatisfactory defense, this document should be withheld and not the Final Defense Report.) Deadline for submitting the ETD is April 16 for doc students and May 7 for Master’s students.
An online payment portal now is available for submission and optional copyright, Open Access and binding fees.
For more information visit the Center for Graduate Life’s Dissertation & Thesis Formatting page, also updated with links to information on manuscript preparation, ProQuest’s subject categories, publication options, embargoes, copyright, and permissions.
Remember, the inaugural Doctoral Hooding Ceremony is only weeks away!
