Thesis & Dissertation Guidance Offered By University Libraries

The most common issue producing an Electronic Thesis or Dissertation (ETD) is recycling copyrighted material (usually images) without first obtaining permission from the copyright holder. This factor often delays the acceptance of your dissertation or thesis.

Avoid these troublesome problems by learning what you may or may not reproduce without permission from the copyright holder (for journal articles, this usually involves the publisher), how to request authorization, and what to do when you cannot obtain permission or find out who to ask. This event will take place on Monday, November 20th from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. via Teams Video.

More information along with the registration link can be found here, or you can reach out to event coordinator Dr. Lisa Rose-Wiles via e-mail.

In addition to copyright and finalizing your draft copy, looking at the proper steps in submitting a Thesis or Dissertation will complete your academic requirement. As part of the University Libraries Walsh Workshops Wednesday series, a presentation entitled: “How to Submit Your Thesis of Dissertation” which focuses on your work and the Seton Hall University eRepository will be offered twice on Wednesday, November 29th from 12:00-1:00 p.m. and again from 6-7:00 p.m. Both sessions will be broadcast via Teams Video.

More information along with the registration link can be found here, or you can reach out to event coordinator Professor Gerry Shea via e-mail.

Graduate students planning to submit a dissertation or thesis this year and their advisors are very strongly encouraged to attend these valuable sessions.
