Who is responsible for processing the electronic submission after dissertation/thesis committee approval?
After the committee signs off on the electronic thesis or dissertation, the student should submit the ETD to the ETD Online System. The Online System will then send the ETD to the ETD Student Services Staff person in the student’s school for approval. This staff person will be responsible for approving the ETD, making sure that the file’s formatting is correct, the links work, etc. After the ETD has been approved, it will then be sent to ULS for archiving and, in the case of dissertations, to ProQuest/UMI.
