UW affiliates have online access to theses and dissertations. If you are interested only in theses and dissertations authored by UW students, use the Dissertations & Theses @ University of Wyoming database. UW theses and dissertations are also listed in the library catalog, though the database is usually more current. The catalog's advanced search allows you to limit the material type to "Thesis/Diss."

Full text dissertations and many theses from other universities (includes UW) are available in Digital Dissertations Full Text.
