At this workshop, we will review the guidelines and deadlines necessary for graduation this semester. Topics will include applying to graduate, scheduling your defense, submitting your dissertation or treatise to the Texas Digital Library, requesting an embargo, IRB requirements and reviewing what paperwork you must submit to the Graduate School.

UT requires open access publication of all theses, reports, and dissertations. However, the Graduate School can temporarily delay (embargo) the publication of your thesis or dissertation for up to seven years. This workshop will clarify open access publication, your rights as the copyright owner of your thesis or dissertation, reasons why you might want to embargo your thesis or dissertation and the procedures for doing so.

The Graduate School distributes a set of thesis and dissertation templates in Microsoft Word for Apple and Windows computers, which will help you format your paper according to current requirements. This workshop will help you learn to use the templates, and will cover such topics as the use of styles, correct page numbering and table of contents generation.

This workshop will cover formatting requirements for theses and dissertations. We will discuss common errors and how to avoid them. This workshop is appropriate for all graduate students who are completing a thesis or dissertation.
