There is still a lot you need to think about after you have finished your degree project. Here, you will find everything you need to know about rules for e-publication and how to order printing if needed.
Electronic Publication of Master's Theses
It may be helpful to know that theses published electronically are freely accessible and searchable. Theses are registered and published in the Chalmers ODR Student Theses service; as an author, you can opt out of electronic publication, but registration (a searchable entry without full text) is mandatory.
Electronic publication of the full text requires that all authors have approved a publication agreement. Below, you can read exactly how to proceed with the electronic publication of the full text, step by step.
E-Publication process
Start by reading through the document “Process for Publication Agreements.”
Next, read the document “Agreement Text for E-Publication.”
Fill out the form “Agreement on E-Publication of a Thesis.
The departments register and publish online
Both registration and electronic publication are handled by department staff. The thesis must be prepared in accordance with specified templates and submitted in PDF format.
