Full texts of UMD theses/dissertations are available online in DRUM for those completed since December 2003. These are available to everyone. In instances where the student has restricted access to their electronic thesis or dissertation in DRUM for a specific period of time, any physical copies are also restricted.
Many theses/dissertations are available in ProQuest Theses and Dissertations Global. Because of licensing agreements, this database can be used only by current faculty, staff, and students of the University of Maryland, College Park, and authorized users from other subscribing institutions. Theses and dissertations from over 1,000 colleges and universities are included.
If you have any questions concerning the availability of your work on ProQuest’s Digital Dissertations or DRUM,
please contact Michelle Tan in the Registrar's Office at mtan@umd.edu or UMD Library’s DRUM Team at drum-help@umd.edu.
