Three paper versions of doctoral dissertations and two paper versions of master's theses (the submitted theses/dissertations must be the final versions revised after the defense and approved by supervisors; both supervisors and students must sign in the designated sections). Upload the electronic versions of theses/dissertations to the Graduate School's Information Service System in accordance with the instructions in the file pouch. The classification number on the cover of the thesis/dissertation can be found on the website of Chinese Library Classification (www.ztflh.com). If it is approved to be classified as confidential, please fill in "Confidentiality Level and Confidentiality Until MM/YYYY" in the confidentiality section. The code of our university 10286 and a student ID should be indicated on the upper right corner of the cover. Students can access www.udcc.org and click "Outline" to find the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) number.
Upload the electronic versions of theses/dissertations to the Archive Office. For formatting guidelines regarding the electronic theses/dissertations (theses/dissertations in PDF are consistent with printed versions), please refer to the “Thesis/Dissertation Formatting Guidelines” section in the Graduate Student Handbook.
