1. Guidelines for authors
If a student wants to publish his/her thesis or dissertation or re-use the information in any other way the following steps should be taken:
Apply in writing to your supervisor and supply information to support the request. Include the full details of the thesis/dissertation.
The supervisor will forward the request to the head of the department and the dean of the faculty for approval.
You will be notified by the UP Legal Office on the outcome of your request.
Within the UPeTD system the thesis/dissertation will be treated as if embargoed. Students are encouraged to make the etd publicly available after publication of the book or other form of re-use.
Please contact the UPeTD Office (upetd@up.ac.za) if you are interested in one of our electronic theses and dissertations.
