How to submit your dissertation
After passing the oral examination, you have one year to publish your dissertation. If you have requested an extension from the doctoral commission, please send us the confirmation.
The doctoral regulations of your department specify the ways in which you can publish your dissertation and how many copies you must submit. Please check which version of the doctoral regulations applies to you.
All dissertations at TU Dortmund University are submitted to the Section Information Skills and Publication Support. You can submit your dissertation to us in person by appointment or, alternatively, send it by mail. You will find our address and contact information below.
After you submit your dissertation, we will send a submission confirmation to the Dean’s Office or the doctoral commission of your department. This serves as the basis for the doctoral certificate issued to you by the department.
Below, we would like to explain the two most common methods for publishing your dissertation, both of which are permitted under all doctoral regulations. (For any other possible options, please consult your doctoral regulations and contact us.)
