PhD Students (and the following Doctoral students: Doctor of Business, Doctor of Engineering, Doctor of Education, Doctor of Medicine, Doctor of Medicine under Special Regulations) are required to deposit an electronic copy of their thesis in the University of Cambridge's institutional repository, Apollo. This has been a requirement since 1st October 2017, when the Board of Graduate Studies introduced the requirement that these students deposit both a hard copy and an electronic copy of their thesis. For the avoidance of doubt, the requirement to deposit an electronic thesis in Apollo applies irrespective of when the degree commenced.
These pages contain information for Doctoral students about requirements to deposit their theses and advice on how to manage this process. They also contain information for potential researchers and readers of theses.Information about submitting hardbound copies can be found on the Student Registry's website.
Any alumni who wish to have their thesis digitised and made open access are can find guidance here.
