All ANU theses digitised – the 2010s
To celebrate the digitisation of all ANU theses, we are looking at a selection of theses available through the Open Research repository.
For the last year we have been looking more closely at some of our theses, which are now more readily accessible to you!
Today we will finish up this series by taking a look at some theses from the 2010s. From 2018, all ANU theses submitted are required to be submitted digitally – which will make them easier to access and be used in the future. We are excited about the theses to be produced by ANU researchers in the years, and decades, to come.
