Dissertations and Theses:
Some printed dissertations and theses are kept in the library.
Many dissertations and theses will be available in electronic (PDF) format.
We use the word "dissertation" for work done as part of an undergraduate or taught master's course and we use "thesis" for work done for PhD or research master's degrees.
Dissertations and theses completed before 2019 were submitted to DIT, which preceded TU Dublin, and these are listed as Dublin Institute of Technology works.
Dissertations: How to do a Subject search:
Browse dissertations for a particular programme in the Library Catalogue by selecting the Subject search option from the drop-down menu.
Then enter your programme code e.g. DT228 or your programme title e.g. BSc Computer Science to obtain a list of the dissertations for that course.
A dissertation may be available in print or in electronic format.
