Access to printed theses

You can also search for printed theses and master's dissertations from SDU in the Library Catalogue and in Summon, and order them to read; in the monitored reading rooms. You can't loan the printed theses to take home. Some of the them have clauses and therefore you can't access them all.

In the Catalogue

  • Use Advanced Search to search for theses.
  • Limit to "specialer" by Material (at the bottom of the page).
  • Search for the department from which you want the theses. For example, if you type "Department of Political Science" in the field of words or sentences, you will see the theses approved at the SDU Deparyment of Political Science.
  • Click Place Hold at the theses you would like to read. After you log in for the first time, you can order more.
  • You can't search for these theses by topic search, as it is not all the topics that are subject indexed.

In Summon

  • Use Advanced search to search for theses in Summon.
  • Find Content Type and select "Student Thesis".
  • Search at the department from which you want the theses. For example, if you write "Department of Political Science" in the "All fields"-box, you will see the theses approved at the SDU Department of Political Science.
  • When searching for theses in Summon, Summon refers you to the Catalogue, when you tap the individual title. Here you order and log in. If you are looking for theses in Summon, and therefore need to switch between Summon and the Catalogue, you will need to log in every time you want to order a new thesis.
