Theses and Dissertations

 

This collection assembles the theses and dissertations of Mississippi State University graduate students. The majority of the documents are born digital from 2001 to present; however, there are a few documents that have been digitized with the author's permission and added to the repository.

If you are the author of a MSU thesis or dissertation and would like a digitized copy preserved in the repository, please send an email to etd@library.msstate.edu with your contact and citation information.

Some of the documents in this collection have restricted access. If you would like to request access, please contact etd@library.msstate.edu with the document name and URL.

Beginning in 2020, efforts are made to ensure each submitted thesis and dissertation is web accessible. If there are issues with the accessibility of the document, please contact etd@library.msstate.edu. Documents submitted before 2020 were not made web accessible. If you need accessibility added to a document, please contact etd@library.msstate.edu and we will try to accommodate your request.
