General Information

All thesis-option graduate students at Purdue must deposit the final products of their research in the Graduate School Thesis/Dissertation Office.

We will help you ensure that all pre-requisites for deposit have been fulfilled and that your thesis or dissertation meets the quality standards established by the Graduate Council Standing Committee on Theses and Dissertations and as outlined in the Manual for the Preparation of Graduate Theses (Seventh Revised Edition, 2006).

Keys to successful and stress-free deposits are planning and preparation. Familiarize yourself with Graduate School requirements and deadlines as well as those established within your department. Most discrepancies can be easily avoided if candidates carefully review the thesis preparation manual, are meticulous in their work, and ask questions in advance.

Please note that we no longer schedule precheck appointments as these have been replaced by the on-line tools available on this website as well as our scheduled presentations to departments, organizations, and interested groups. However, we remain available to assist candidates needing answers to specific formatting questions as well as schedule mandatory final deposit appointments.

To schedule your final thesis deposit appointment, or request a thesis formatting and deposit presentation, please contact Mark Jaeger at 494-2600/markj@purdue.edu .
