Theses subject to an embargo are not accessible digitally or in hard copy until the embargo period elapses. Embargoes may be applied to protect the rights of the author whilst they explore opportunities for publication, or where sensitive information is held within the thesis.
Please note that there is a short delay in recently submitted theses appearing on our repository. If you cannot find the thesis you are looking for, please contact the Research Office.
The University holds a print Theses Collection (including some Masters dissertations) on the 2nd Floor of the Library. The holdings are not complete as the criteria for inclusion was set by academic departments, and threshold varied between department. Not all student work would be made available to view. The selected works were intended to provide examples of work for students. Some examples were kept in-house, used for teaching purposes, and not available within the library. Library print holdings were usually kept for up to 10 years and reviewed for relevance.
To search for print theses and masters dissertations use UR Library Search to search for a title or topic and filter by Format > Book > Theses, Dissertation.
