At this workshop, we will review the guidelines and deadlines necessary for graduation this semester. Topics will include applying to graduate, scheduling your defense, submitting your thesis, report, dissertation, or treatise to the Texas Digital Library, requesting an embargo, IRB requirements, and reviewing what paperwork you must submit to the Graduate School.

This workshop will clarify open access publication, your rights as the copyright owner of your thesis or dissertation, reasons why you might want to embargo your thesis or dissertation, and the procedures for doing so. We will also cover general information on copyright and fair use. There will be opportunity for Q&A.

This workshop for master’s and doctoral students preparing to submit a thesis/report/dissertation will cover common formatting errors in these documents and the use of the Graduate School templates.

Each fall, the Graduate School presents an orientation designed specifically for new graduate students. This year's orientation will be held in-person on Friday, August 22, 2025.
