Finding UQ Theses:

To find completed UQ PhDs and selected masters theses, visit the UQ Library catalogue. Theses are usually coded with a "THE" as the first part of the call number.

For example, "THE9175" is the call number for U. Nyo Tun's Master of Science thesis about "Koala diet selection and habitat use" - University of Queensland, 1994.

The Library also offers UQ research masters and PhD students the chance to put their theses online after being awarded as part of the Australian Digital Theses (ADT) project. This project ensures that theses are more widely and cost-effectively available.
