After the granting of the doctorate, the Graduate School-Newark
will have the dissertation microfilmed. The dissertation must,
therefore, be prepared for this purpose with the same care as if it
were to appear in printed form. The abstract that must accompany the dissertation also must be ready for publication when it is submitted to
the dean, as it will be published in Dissertation Abstracts.
Additional materials to be submitted at this time include two paper copies of the title page of your dissertation with the original signatures in black ink of all dissertation committee members, an electronic copy of the dissertation uploaded to https://etd.libraries.rutgers.edu/submit-your-etd, and additional surveys and forms as required.
University
Microfilms of Ann Arbor, Michigan, microfilms the dissertation and publishes
the abstract. Information on how to prepare the dissertation and
abstract, and the agreement with University Microfilms, which the
candidate must sign, are available in the Office of the Dean of the
Graduate School-Newark.
