Many theses, dissertations, and undergraduates honors theses are now being housed in the university's institutional repository, ScholarWorks@UARK. Check there first for materials from approximately 2012 to present, though some materials date back to 2009.
Otherwise, master's theses, doctoral dissertations, and some recent undergraduate honors theses can be found by searching OneSearch for author, title, or subject by clicking the box underneath the OneSearch search box on the Libraries' homepage before you search, or by clicking the filter Material Type: Dissertations in the left hand column on the OneSearch search results page after you search.
You can also search by department or faculty advisor in the keyword search; examples:
- advisor gawley robert and synthesis
- dept physics and lasers
Note that recently completed dissertations and theses go first to ProQuest. Search ProQuest Dissertations and Theses (see link below) for recent theses and dissertations.
The following broadly describes library holdings for UA theses and dissertations:

Recent dissertations are listed in ProQuest before they are input into OneSearch. MAIN copies can usually be checked out. |
