Dissertations at TUM

Dissertations submitted to the Technical University of Munich must be made available through reproduction and distribution in accordance with the doctoral regulations (TUM-PromO) [1]. For this purpose, dissertations can be published electronically or in paper form with ISBN. More information can be found in the section Publishing Doctoral Theses [2].

Dissertations in paper form are archived by the University Library. You can search and borrow them via the TUM Online Catalog (OPAC) [3]. In doing so, you can limit your search to dissertations if you filter the results list with the format type "Dissertation, Hochschulschrift".

Electronically published dissertations are made available in full text on our repository mediaTUM [4]. You can also perform a full text search on this platform.

Dissertations for other universities

The service dissonline [5] offers search options for German online dissertations in the catalog of the German National Library [6]. In order to enhance the international visibility of the collection, the metadata for all German online dissertations is continually delivered to DART, the European portal for online dissertations [7].
