Dissertations and Theses

To further promote and preserve the intellectual contributions of its degree recipients, the Medical College of Wisconsin is partnering with ProQuest to disseminate its emerging scholarship through the ProQuest Dissertation & Theses Global database and the Web of Science, which reach thousands of institutions and millions of researchers worldwide. ProQuest also partners with major search and discipline-specific indexes for additional amplification and provides all these services free of charge. By distributing your work with ProQuest, you will increase its visibility and impact within the global research community. ProQuest recognizes the critical importance of embargos and will never publish a thesis until it has been released for dissemination by the university. You may withdraw your work from distribution at any time.  You are eligible for a 10% royalty based upon sales and usage of the full text of the work. 

Please contact disspub@proquest.com with any questions and to set up your account to collect royalties.
