N2 - This chapter documents the rationale for compiling a collection on the PhD by Publication. The aim of the book is to “demystify” this alternative route of doctoral education because there is a dearth of publications (journal articles or books) on this PhD route which is gaining popularity around the world. This book attempts to “demystify” PhD by Publication by identifying pertinent issues and (mis)conceptions pertaining to policies and practices through research, research syntheses, and surveys of university policies on the PhD by Publication internationally (Part I – Landscapes of PhD by Publication). Another layer of “demystification” pertains to experience (Part II: Narratives of PhD by Publication). The inclusion of reflective and autobiographical accounts by PhD by Publication supervisors, students, and graduates internationally provides a vivid insider’s perspective toward this PhD route. This chapter closes with an outline of each chapter of the book.

Finding a thesis using Library Search

You can search for a thesis in Library Search in the same way that you would search for any other book.

The results will give you a variety of ways to access a thesis because St Andrews theses are indexed in multiple databases.

The first result provides access to the thesis through EThOS, ( the British Library's full text catalogue of UK doctoral research theses available online . ) If you click on the green button, it will take you to the thesis page on EThOS. Here, you can access the full text of the thesis by clicking either of these links:

The second result will show you the record for the thesis that the library has created. Click on the title and it will take you to a page where you can access information about the thesis, such as the classmark of the print copy and a link to the St Andrews Research Repository, where you can access the full text, (if not embargoed).

Digitisation and requesting a full text digital copy of a St Andrews theses

Our policy  is to provide digital delivery of St Andrews theses wherever possible.  If you wish to consult a St Andrews thesis please check  the Library collections  first to discover if a digital copy is available.

From 2007, all St Andrews doctoral theses have been submitted as electronic theses and will be digitally available subject to any full text embargos being in place.  Major digitisation projects in 2016 and 2018 have made some 90% of pre 2007 St Andrews theses available digitally.  These theses date from the early twentieth century up to 2007.  Please note that some digital full text for earlier theses is still in the process of being loaded and some digitisation for unique copies of theses still has to be carried out in-house.

So, for example, if you find a thesis you want to read and there is no link to full text then you will probably see notes similar to these, asking you to contact us to give you help on accessing a digital copy:  

Here is a note in the full Library Search result:

To contact us with any electronic theses queries, please email: [email protected] .

St Andrews is also a fully participating member of the EThOS service.  EThOS is a British Library national service to provide a central source for the discovery and supply of electronic theses. St Andrews is an Open Access Sponsor of EThOS which means that we are committed to providing our theses for digitisation on demand, and requests are made available to researchers open access and free of charge.  Over 500 St Andrews theses have been digitised as a result of researcher requests via EThOS.

The service can still be used to request digitisations of any remaining St Andrews theses which have been excluded from previous digitisation projects. Once you find the details of the thesis you wish to consult on the EThOS website you can make a request for the thesis to be digitised.  If you do not find the thesis listed in the EThOS database, please follow the instructions provided.  You will be presented with an on screen form to request an unlisted thesis.

(Please note that EThOS will not charge for the standard delivery format which is a downloadable PDF, but users choosing alternative delivery formats such as print, CD/DVD will be quoted charges.)

* The British Library is continuing to experience a major technology outage as a result of a cyber-attack . Services including EThOS may be affected. Information is available on a temporary website .

Want to consult a print thesis?

You may still want to look at a print thesis.  Perhaps because of its uniqueness, or because the print can be consulted even though the electronic thesis full text is embargoed or not available for digitisation, (at the request of the thesis author).

Did you know that our earliest digitised thesis was written in 1919?

'The structure of mannitol', by Ettie Stewart Steele

( http://hdl.handle.net/10023/13088 )

If a print copy is available for consultation, it can be consulted at the Napier Reading Room, (located within the Richardson Research Library at Martyrs Kirk on North Street.)

To arrange a time to view the print copy of a thesis, please email Special Collections at [email protected] , or make an appointment using their online booking form at https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/library/specialcollections/researchandenquiries/bookanappointment/ .  

Please give two working days’ notice of the time you’d like to view the thesis - this gives Special Collections time to retrieve the thesis from the deep store.

Searching in the St Andrews Research Repository

If you know that the research thesis you are looking for was awarded from St Andrews you can search for it directly in the St Andrews Research Repository .

Here you can view a  list of all theses in the Repository in title order.

You can also browse by school for theses in a particular discipline, e.g.

In the Repository record for each thesis, you'll be able to view information about the author, supervisor(s), title, date of completion, as well as project funding and embargos, where applicable.

You may also be able to read the thesis abstract and subject keywords, where present.

If the full text of a thesis is available for you to view, you will see a thumbnail of the thesis' first page in the upper left-hand corner, e.g.

Embargoed Theses

Some theses are embargoed, at the request of the author, which means that access to the print copy, electronic copy, or both copies is restricted. The three main reasons for an embargo are that any publication would be;

• commercially da maging to the researcher, the supervisor, or the University;
• professionally damaging, by virtue of precluding future publication;
• in breach of law or ethics.

If a thesis is embargoed, you will see a note on the repository webpage, e.g.

This tells you whether the print or electronic copy is restricted, and the date when the restriction ends. But please note that authors can request for restrictions to be renewed and extended.

Research Postgraduate (Ph.D.)

The University of St Andrews is one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the UK. St Mary’s College (the School of Divinity), was founded in 1538, and occupies a beautiful 16th-century quad in the heart of St Andrews. Doctoral students have excellent facilities within the School, including the historic King James Library and the Roundel, a dedicated doctoral study centre overlooking St Andrews’ 12th-century cathedral ruins.

The Ph.D. programme in Systematic and Historical Theology is competitive and rigorous, and is aimed at those who already have the necessary coursework grounding to begin an independent doctoral research project. We welcome applications from suitably qualified candidates in the full range of subjects falling within the field. Please see our staff pages for particular fields of expertise and supervision. Informal enquiries from prospective applicants are always welcome.

>> Find out how to apply

The focus of the Ph.D. programme is the completion of a doctoral thesis under the supervision of one or two members of staff, usually in the course of three years of full-time work. Ph.D. students attend the weekly research seminar in theology ; and are encouraged to receive language instruction and to attend other lectures, seminars and reading groups as appropriate. The majority of their time, however, is dedicated to independent research.

The School of Divinity and the University as a whole work together to provide doctoral candidates with the skills they need to succeed in an international job market, both academic and non-academic. Paid teaching assistantships are regularly advertised and are combined with formal and informal teaching training. During the first year of study, students also undergo training in basic research skills, including a formalized GRADskills Programme offered by the University’s Centre for Education Enhancement and Development (CEED) and St Leonard’s College. Regular workshops, both general and subject-specific, in areas such as publishing, conference presentations, and job searches are offered by the School and the University.

The School and University offer a number of scholarships and bursaries, though as at all of the most prestigious UK universities, many of our doctoral students are self-funded. Full scholarship information can be found on the University’s funding pages .
