Tag: Theses

It’s that time of year when theses written by Baruch students start to trickle in to the CUNY Academic Works system. I’ve been processing them as they come in and thought it might be useful to provide a quick summary of what is actually online.

1. Our online collections include only two kinds of theses: theses written for undergraduate honors and theses for the masters in corporate communication.
2. Not every thesis is online. Each year, some students elect not to put their work online for various reasons (such those undergraduate honors thesis writers whose thesis is a work of fiction or a collection of short stories).
3. The online collection of undergraduate honors theses goes back to the 1986, while the online collection of masters theses in corporate communication only go back to 2019. We do have a microfilm collection of older masters theses in corporate communications as well, which can be found via searches in OneSearch.
4. Both kinds of theses are lumped together in the “Student Theses” collection in CUNY Academic Works. If you want to find just one kind of theses, you can search for them by using these specific search queries:

• “corporate communication” will find all the digital versions of masters theses in that program we’ve received since 2019
• “honors” will find all the digital versions of undergraduate honors theses we’ve received since 1986
