Online Access

To find digital theses and dissertations, use Dissertations & Theses at Webster University, which contains Webster doctoral dissertations and masters-level theses submitted summer, 2005 to the present. Webster/Eden faculty, staff, and students may view the full-text for free.

If you are interested in theses or dissertations written by students at other institutions, you may search the ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global database.  Some of these records may link to the full-text of the document and some may allow you to preview the first 20+ pages.  If the full-text is not available online, the Library may be able to borrow it for you.

Physical Copies (Print Collection)

Webster University Library has print copies of theses and dissertations written by Webster University students. They are shelved in the Lower Level of the Library in alphabetical order by the author's last name. Most of these documents cannot be checked out and may only be read in the Library. However, sometimes we have a second copy that can be checked out.

1. Go to the Library Catalog.

2. Enter a topic, keyword, or subject in the search box.

3. Click Submit to search.
