How do I find completed dissertations in the Library?

You may access completed dissertations by going to the Library's page for Finding Dissertations.

ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global provides access to over 3 million full-text dissertations from hundreds of different universities. Here you may easily locate dissertations by Title, Author, Keyword, Subject, etc. See an example search below. This is the best resource to use when trying to locate dissertations that are similar to your research design or topic. You may also search for dissertations by Dissertation Chair. Click here for instructions on how to locate dissertations chaired by your mentor or dissertation chair.

ProQuest Dissertations & Theses @ National University provides access to the dissertations and theses found in ProQuest that were produced by students at this university. The search screen is exactly like PQDT, but already includes the institution limiter for Northcentral University. This is the best resource to use when trying to locate dissertations on your topic area, specifically from this university. Remember, searching ProQuest Dissertations & Theses @ National University will produce a more narrow set of results than the first PQDT database.

Finally, you may locate Education dissertations and theses in the ERIC database. On the ERIC search results screen, you may limit your results to dissertations by selecting Dissertations/Theses from the Publication Type menu, as shown below.
