Graduate::Thesis and Dissertation   

Dissertation/Thesis Process & Guidelines 

The Dissertation/Thesis process is mandated by the Graduate school for all Ph.D and Masters with thesis students. The graduate school provides the guidelines which need to be adhered to. Although, the graduate school no longer requires a format check, the College of Engineering continues to perform a format check and has specific deadlines which may be in advance of the Graduate School's deadlines. It is the student's responsibility to be fully aware of the requirements of both the College of Engineering and the Graduate School and meet them. Not following the standards required may seriously impede the graduation process of the student. Provided below are some important links to help you get started with the process. Remember: Deadlines approach much faster than you anticipate!
