Dissertations and theses by UCSC authors are best viewed through UCSC’s eScholarship site by filtering items by type “theses” and sorting by any of the options – a useful sort for recent files is “Date Descending.” Department or subject are not currently available as filters or sorting options. This collection contains theses and dissertations from Winter quarter 2012 and onward, dependent on embargo status.
Dissertation and theses from across the University of California are hosted in eScholarship and findable by going to all items, filtering to “Theses” as the “Type of Work,” and optionally sorting as described above for UC Santa Cruz files.
The ProQuest Dissertations & Theses database provides dissertations and theses from around the world from 1743 to present. Researchers searching for UCSC dissertations published before 2012 may search in ProQuest and UC Library Search.
The land on which we gather is the unceded territory of the Awaswas-speaking Uypi Tribe. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
The land acknowledgement used at UC Santa Cruz was developed in partnership with the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band Chairman and the Amah Mutsun Relearning Program at the UCSC Arboretum.
