Dissertations and theses written by UGA graduate students are available in either electronic or print format, depending on when the work was completed.
1999-present
From 1999 to the present, most UGA dissertations and theses can be accessed online in our Electronic Theses & Dissertations database. Note: Some authors restrict access to their electronic thesis or dissertation for 2 years after graduation. During this period, some theses and dissertations may be either completely restricted or limited to on-campus use.
UGA dissertations and theses completed from Fall 2019 to the present are also available in the Proquest Dissertations and Theses Full Text database.
Pre-1999
Dissertations and theses completed prior to 1999 are owned by the UGA Libraries in print format only, and are held in our off-site storage facility or in Special Collections. Search our GIL-FIND catalog to find records for dissertations or theses. Make sure to add the keywords “University of Georgia” and “dissertation” or “thesis” to your search in the GIL-Find catalog. You can also limit to Dissertations using the Format filter on the left side of the results list. When you find a print dissertation or thesis that you would like to check out, you can request the item to be brought to campus from our off-site storage.
