All digital dissertations received in 2023!

16 January 2024

All UG dissertations from 2023 have been received in digital format: 634 in total.

All dissertations can be found in the UG research portal. Whenever possible, dissertations are made available open access, without restrictions, but in many cases (temporary) embargoes are necessary. The main reason for placing a temporary embargo on the entire dissertation is a commercial edition of the dissertation, publishers typically demand an embargo in this case. The most common reason for placing separate chapters under embargo is that the chapters will be published as a journal article at a later date.
