eTD@BC is the system that graduate students at Boston College use to submit their theses and dissertations. All final eTDs must be submitted and published online through ProQuest/UMI, as well as BC’s Open Access institutional repository, eScholarship. (For more information, see the University eTD policy.)
Please note:
In February 2022, there will an eTD workshop where I will go over the process for submitting your work, including walking through the ProQuest interface. For more details and to sign up, visit the Library's Workshop Calendar. Note that the same workshop is being offered three times, so only sign up for one.
Before beginning your submission, please read through the instructions, presented as follows:
At the end of these instructions, you will be directed to ProQuest's ETD Administrator website where you must make your submission and decisions about your ETD
To better understand the value of having your work in eScholarship, BC's Open Access institutional repository, listen to what BC faculty have to say about Open Access.
