For
a master’s degree to be conferred, all students completing a thesis
must provide an electronic copy on a CD-ROM to the Corcoran Library
and must submit the thesis electronically to UMI Dissertation Publishing
accessed via the Library’s
website.
In addition, students may have departmental submission requirements. Please consult your advisor regarding these standards.
Please consult your advisor regarding issues of format and style. A copy of The
Chicago Manual of Style is available in the Library’s reference section
(Z253.U69 2003).
MA – History
of Decorative Arts
Include all images in the electronic copy CD-ROM submitted to the Corcoran Library.
Remove all images before submitting to UMI Dissertation Publishing.
MA – Interior Design
Diagrams (in PDF form) may be in separate files from the thesis
text in the electronic copy CD-ROM submitted to the Library.
However, diagrams must be included in a final single PDF file
for submission to UMI Dissertation Publishing. Instructions
on how to combine PDF files can be found at FAQ number six
at http://dissertations.umi.com/pdffaq.html.
This website also provides information about preparing your
file for submission.
Other questions about the submission process can be found at http://dissertations.umi.com/faq.html.
Converting manuscripts to PDF files
Students may use the UMI Dissertation Publishing online conversion
tool to convert their manuscripts from a Microsoft Word (or
RTF) document to a PDF file. Alternatively, they may produce
their own PDF file. In either case, all manuscripts must be
submitted as PDF files, and it is the student's responsibility
to ensure that the PDF file is an accurate representation of
the original manuscript.
Submit approved thesis to UMI
To begin the electronic submission process, go to the UMI Dissertation
Publishing website [http://dissertations.umi.com/corcoran]
and follow the instructions.
If you have any further questions, please contact the Library
Director at (202) 478-1544 or by e-mail at library@corcoran.org.
