Dissertations and theses held in the library...

...can be searched for via the library catalogue. The university is obliged to keep a copy of all doctoral theses submitted at UEL, and most of these make their way into the library’s collection. The library also holds a very small collection of Masters dissertations. To find either, simply begin your search on the library catalogue with the word ‘thesis’ e.g. thesis health psychology. To view a thesis, you will then need to ask at the library counter and they will fetch it for you.

Please note, that as ‘unpublished works’ it is against Copyright Law to photocopy, take notes from or reference a thesis / dissertation without the author’s prior consent. Unless you contact the author, the thesis / dissertation collection is of most use for seeing what one looks like and how you might approach the layout / formatting of your own thesis or dissertation.
