Thesis compilation

A thesis by compilation (otherwise known as a thesis by publication) is a thesis which includes some of your journal article manuscripts which have been or are in the process of being published. If you are writing a thesis by compilation, its structure may be slightly different to that of a traditional thesis.

The thesis by published works format is chosen in cases where the student intends to first publish the thesis in parts in international journals. It often results in a higher number of publications during the doctoral studies than a monograph and may render in higher number of citations in other research publications;

Type the title of the thesis and any potential subtitle. Select language of the title from the listed options. If your thesis has a title in another language, this is to be entered in the field “Alternative title”, and the language must be selected from the listed options. Enter the publishing year of the thesis and the number of pages.

A thesis as a collection of articles or series of papers, also known as thesis by published works, or article thesis, is a doctoral dissertation that, as opposed to a coherent monograph, is a collection of research papers with an introductory section consisting of summary chapters.
