Murdoch University Digital Theses Program

About Digital Theses at Murdoch

Murdoch University is a participant in the Australasian Digital Theses Program which is building a distributed database of digital versions of theses produced by Higher Degree by research students at the participating institutions.

The theses will be available worldwide via the web. The aim behind the program is to provide access to, and promote Australian research to the international community.

Murdoch Higher degree by Research students are required to deposit an electronic copy of their thesis with the Library. This copy is converted to PDF format and can then be included in Murdoch's Digital Thesis Database.

This site includes links to locally stored theses, the national distributed database of theses and includes information about how to deposit your thesis.

		Research and Development
The ADT Program participants acknowledge the work done by Virginia Polytechnic Institute. This national pilot project utilises and adapts the concepts and deposit process software first developed at Virginia Polytechnic Institute.
