After departmental approval, students are required to submit an electronic version of their thesis, dissertation, or final project to the Macdonald-Kelce Library for inclusion in the digital repository, which is accessible on the Internet.

STEP THREE:

Distribute this link to students, for the agreement form and submission of work. Please have your students submit their work, after final approval, by the end of their semester of graduation.
