Theses, Dissertations and Student Research Papers (Forest Ecosysytems and Society)
This collection was initiated in February 2009 and includes items submitted from 2008 to the present. Electronic Dissertations & Theses (ETDs) from the Department of Forest Ecosystems and Society are mapped to this collection from the main Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection in the ScholarsArchive@OSU.
In addition, these and older theses & dissertations written by students enrolled in the College of Forestry or the School of Forestry (1923-1984) have been digitized and are mapped to the appropriate collection in the College of Forestry Community. Finally, students in non-thesis degree programs in WSE are encouraged to submit their final research papers to this site.
For information about theses and dissertations from the department that are not currently available electronically, search in the OSU Libraries Catalog by author, title, or do a subject search for "theses osu -- [insert degree name]"
