Doctoral theses in UCL’s repository

By Patrycja, on 25 October 2018

At UCL, candidates for research degrees are required to deposit an electronic copy of their final thesis in UCL’s Research Publications Service (RPS), to be made open access in UCL’s institutional repository, UCL Discovery . Students can choose to restric public access to their thesis, for a variety of reasons like future publication, copyright restriction or sensitive data, but most are made open access immediately, or after a delay period no longer than 12 months.

The requirement to submit an electronic copy of your thesis as a condition of award has been in place at UCL since 2009. In addition to that, we have retrospectively digitised theses from earlier years, as a part of a collaborative project with ProQuest. So far, about 3,500 theses have been made available in UCL Discovery as a part of this collaboration. Theses are also digitised through the British Library’s e-Theses Online Service ( EThOS ), upon request.

In total, there are over 10,500 theses available in UCL’s institutional repository, dating as far back as 1933 . UCL theses are amongst our most-downloaded items! The most popular is a 1990 thesis,  Marketing theories and concepts for the international construction industry , available here . Amongst the theses available there are some completed by notable UCL alumni:

Julian Baggini , philosopher and author of popular books on philosophy, including  A Short History of Truth , The Pig that Wants to be Eaten and 99 other thought experiments , and most recently  How the World Think s. Baggini completed his PhD in 1996, and his thesis on philopsphy of idnetity was recently made available here: http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10057733/

Adam Rutherford , geneticist and author, has produced several science documentaries, and hosts the BBC 4 radio programme Inside Science. He completed his PhD at UCL in 2002, and his thesis on the role of a specific gene (CHX10) on eye development was recently made available in UCL Discovery: http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10057801/

Chris Van Tulleken , together with his twin brother and fellow doctor Xand, makes programmes on various aspects of health, most recently Operation Ouch for CBBC . He is also an infectious diseases doctor and MRC Clinical Research Fellow at University College London Hospital, and completed his PhD in 2017. Chris’ thesis is available here: http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1567969/

What is different about dissertation research?

Where should i start, what is a literature review, why are literature reviews important, what is a literature search, should i conduct a ‘systematic review’, can i get help with researching my dissertation.

The research process for your dissertation requires a different approach from that you'll have used during your taught modules. Rather than being guided to relevant sources by a lecturer, you’re responsible for finding, selecting, evaluating and managing all your research sources. You'll be using many more sources than you'll have consulted for smaller pieces of assessed work, and perhaps different types of information from those you've used previously, so you need to think carefully about your approach to your information gathering and management activities.

If you're unsure where to start, then some background reading should help you get underway. Start by looking at broad themes and topics of interest, viewing sources like textbooks, subject dictionaries and encyclopaedias which examine larger fundamental concepts, before narrowing your search to look for specific research in your area of study. If you find some really useful material, such as relevant articles or books, you can mine these for all sorts of other useful related sources. For example:

  • Has the author written additional material on the topic?
  • Does the work have useful keywords or subject terms you can use for further research?
  • Does the work have references or a bibliography you can use to explore related material?

A literature review summarises and analyses the literature you've found through your research. In a literature review, the literature itself is the subject of discussion. The aim of a literature review is to demonstrate that you’ve read, and have a good grasp of, the main published material concerning a particular topic or question in your field. A literature review isn’t a straightforward summary of everything you’ve read on a topic. It’s an evaluative analysis of what’s been discovered in your field. The review should describe, summarise, evaluate and clarify this literature. Research and Writing Skills for Dissertations and Projects  is a UCL Moodle course available to all UCL students and looks at the skills associated with researching and writing an extended piece of work. Module 4 focuses on the literature review process.

When academics and industry professionals conduct research, they usually publish the work in books, journal articles and conference proceedings. For the most part, this is the 'literature' you need to find and review. A literature review sets the scene for your work. It places your research in context and shows how it relates to and builds upon the work of others. It’s also your chance to tell people why your work matters, why it’s relevant, and how it contributes original research to your field. Importantly, a literature review helps you find out how to do research. It shows which research methods have worked in the past and which ones haven’t. This can be a big help when planning your own research strategy.

For your dissertation, you’re likely to need to perform a literature search. A literature search is a well-thought-out, organised search and evaluation of literature available on a topic. A well-structured literature search is an effective and efficient way to locate sound evidence on the subject you're researching. 'Literature' can include journal articles, newspaper articles, official publications, conference proceedings, archives, book chapters, etc. View the literature searching page on this guide for further details about planning your search, common search techniques and developing a search strategy.

Systematic reviews are a type of literature review that follow a very rigorous and systematic searching, screening and analysis process. You can find out more about the process on our guide to systematic reviews . Usually a systematic review addresses a focused, structured research question to inform understanding on a particular topic and often to support evidence-based decision-making in that area. To do a full systematic review can be an extremely time-consuming process and requires a lot of resources, but you may want to incorporate some similar methodology, such as systematic approaches to literature searching or data analysis, without necessarily carrying out a full review. This can be considered to be a systematic style review, or a “light” systematic review.

Your Subject Liaison Librarian or Site Library can provide support for your dissertation through their subject guides which offer guidance on accessing quality academic resources. Send them an email for personalised support or book a one-to-one appointment .

Writing up your PhD thesis: One-to-one support

Course information for Writing up your thesis - One-to-one support, an Academic English course for postgraduate research students at UCL

Course overview

This course is for you if you have successfully passed your upgrade/transfer and have preferably completed Introduction to Writing your PhD Thesis. One-to-one support will help you consolidate and extend your writing, with exercises and feedback on improving structure and style.

Course aims

The course aims to:

  • develop awareness of the theory and conventions of academic writing
  • analyse the sequence of information in essays and chapters of a PhD thesis
  • encourage you to develop your writing skills through guided practice and weekly tutor feedback.

Course content

Five individual tutorials will be arranged within a period of 12 months, at times convenient to both you and your tutor. You are required to take all five tutorials within 12 months from the date you receive the email confirming your place on the course.

Tutorials may take place either online or on campus, as arranged with the course tutor.

The tutorials offer suggestions to consolidate and extend your academic writing and exercises to improve structure and style. Extracts of your work will be read and commented on for general structure.

A short section of the work may be marked in more detail for surface features (grammar, spelling, punctuation and vocabulary).

Work should be submitted to the Thesis Writing tutor at least two weeks before the tutorial. You are expected to complete the recommended follow-up exercises and to submit them together with the next piece of written work.

Writing cannot be proof-read.

Use of a Marking Code to identify errors for self-correction

Tutors using a marking code may not correct every mistake, but are likely to focus on the most important ones. When your work is returned to you, make the necessary corrections and resubmit your work.

Fees and funding

The course fee is £525.

This includes five one-hour tutorial sessions and pre/post reading and support.

Funding  is available through the Doctoral School.

UCL Thesis LaTeX Template © Ian Kirker, 2014

This is a template/skeleton for PhD/MPhil/MRes theses. It uses a rather split-up file structure because this tends to work well for large, complex documents. We suggest using one file per chapter, but you may wish to use more or fewer separate files than that. We've also separated out various bits of configuration into their own files, to keep everything neat.
